Make it true

MAKE IT TRUE
Ruth Ungar-Merenda and Mike Merenda

All around the world, me and you,
casting off for someplace new,
casting out to conjure a cure.
There's a better world in store
and we'll someday sing the blues.
Someday sing those harmonies too.
Yeah we do.
And we'll one day sing those words that will make it true. 
 
Every day is a giving day.
Make our friends along the way.
Up the crags and hills we climb
sure the world is so sublime.
 
And we'll someday sing the blues,
someday sing those harmonies too.
Yeah we do.
And we'll one day sing those words that will make it true.
 
Someday earthly ties will sever,
I can't be around forever.
Leave behind a world of song,
someone else to carry it on.
 
And we'll someday sing the blues,
someday sing those harmonies too.
Yeah we do.
And we'll one day sing those words that will make it true . . .
