Artist/Band: The Kingston Trio
Lyrics for Song: Song For A Friend
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - The Kingston Trio



When you sit and wonder

Why things have gone so wrong

And you wish someone would tell us

Where our friend has gone



Look then to the hills

When there's courage in the wind

And in the face of freedom

And those who look to him



And search within the heart

Of every young man with a song

Then I think we'll know

Where our friend has gone



Summer takes the winter

As the good years take the pain

There'll be laughter in the land again

But hearts won't be the same



And I know I'll remember

When a chill wind takes the sky

And speak of the years he gave us hope

For they will never die



And as we gaze at brave young men

When yesterdays grow long

Then I think we'll know

Where our friend has gone



When you sit and wonder

Why things have gone so wrong

It's then that we'll remember

Where our friend has gone


Song For A Friend - The Kingston Trio

The Kingston Trio's "Song For A Friend" stands as a quintessential example of their folk revival style, blending acoustic guitar harmonies with a narrative focus on camaraderie and connection. Recorded during the height of their popularity in the 1960s, the track exemplifies the group's signature approach to traditional American folk music, characterized by intricate vocal interplay and storytelling. As part of their broader discography, the song reflects the era's emphasis on community and human relationships, themes central to the trio's public image and musical output. The recording captures the warmth and authenticity that defined their contribution to the folk genre, making it a staple for fans of classic acoustic music and the broader folk revival movement of the mid-20th century.
