Richard's Window
[From "The Other Side of the Mountain" (1975),
Performed by: Olivia Newton-John]

Clouds strung like beads in a gray silent sky
And I watch them and simplify my mind
One thing is clear, I know I begin from here
The passing time, it changes dreams and sweeps illusions from your eyes.

He came to me to be a friend
And I knew somehow he couldn't stay
That he was someone I would know for a little while
He brought a smile, and he was free
And he came and gave it all to me
A chance to see the way he sees
So I could fly
Through Richard's window to the sky.

I try to see all that he saw for me,
Looking through Richard's window to the sky.
