The Visit 

An old friend came by to visit I hadn’t seen in years 
He brought along a message meant for me to hear 
The message was ten chapters long, it was intense, and true 
Some chapters made me happy, some left me sad and blue 

I laughed and cried, I smiled and wept, and got carried away 
To another time, and another world, where I knew I couldn’t stay 
My old friend, he told me stories, as he had done for years 
Then, at the end, he said good-bye, and left me there in tears 

I sat and wondered for a while about my friend and all 
And thought, what makes this man so great, what makes him stand so tall 
There’s things that cannot be explained, things we don’t understand 
Like how the Lord in Heaven makes the measure of a man 

I guess I’ll wonder all my life about this friend of mine 
Why is it that my heart is touched when he sings a line 
Or when he speaks, then why can he make me listen close 
And why can I anticipate just how the story goes 

I’ll never know the answers, and I guess that I don’t care 
But I am glad it is that way, and that my friend was there 
He came to see me one last time, a very special day 
Now all that’s left for me to say is, John, aloha-oe
