Just a thought from the past...one that bears repeating.
Get Together
The Youngbloods
Written by Jessie Colin Young

Love is but a song we sing
And fear`s the way we die
You can make the mountains ring
Or make the angels cry
Though the bird is on the wing
And you may not know why

C`mon people now
Smile on your brother
Ev`rybody get together
Try to love one another right now

Some will come and some will go
He shall surely pass
When the one that left us here
Returns for us at last
We are but a moment`s sunlight
Fading in the grass

C`mon people now
Smile on your brother
Ev`rybody get together
Try to love one another right now

1. Aw!!! Thanks for that.
Had the good fortune to hear it the other day.

And while obscure, look for Buzzy Linhart's version.

3. That might be a challenge to find.
I'd like to hear it though. Thanks for the tip.

5. No. Linhart just covered it.
And it's not Jesse Colin Young either. It was written by Chester Powers.
