How Close They Must Be

On a park bench on sunny afternoon
 Sat a young boy and a girl bout seventeen
 As we stood so closely by watched them hold each other's hand
 On their faces love had written we're making plans
 Then he said to her you're my guiding light
 Then she said to him you make my whole world seem so bright
 Then we saw their books of braille and that neither one could see
 Then I thought how close they must be
 Souch tenderness my eyes have never seen
 Two young lovers both just in their teens
 Though their world gives them no light they see much more than you and me
 Don't you know how close they must be
 Then a car stopped just a few steps away
 And a voice said Jim and Jeannie it's time to go
 With their hands still clutched so tight helping each other to the car
 Can you imagine just how close they are
 Don't you know how close they must be
