Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Here's somebody you know for sure, Neil Diamond
[Verse 2]
Thanks very much, I'm gonna do one song for you
But I'ma do it good
[Verse 3]
Dry your eyes, take your song out
When it's a newborn afternoon
And if you can't recall the singer
Can you still recall the tune?
[Verse 4]
Dry your eyes, play it slowly
Just like you're marching off to war
Sing it like you always wanted
Like you sung it once before
[Verse 5]
And from the center of the circle
To the midst of the waiting crowd
If it ever is forgotten
Sing it long and sing it loud
And come dry your eyes
[Verse 6]
And you taught us more about living
Than we ever cared to know
And we came to learn a secret
And we'd never let it go
[Verse 7]
And it was more than being holy
Oh, it was less than being free
And if you can't recall the reason
Can you hear the people sing?
[Verse 8]
Right through the lightning and the thunder
To the dark side of the moon
To that distant falling angel
That descended much too soon
Come dry your eyes
[Verse 9]
Dry your eyes, take your song out
It's a newborn afternoon
And if you can't recall the singer
You can still recall the tune
Come dry your eyes
Come dry your eyes
Dry your eyes
[Verse 10]
Alright, Neil Diamond
Thanks so much
Written by: Neil Diamond, Robbie Robertson
