"Whale Song" lyrics - THE PARTRIDGE FAMILY

Whale song, soft and low
Sing a story as gently you go
Whale song, I hear what you say
This may be the last time you're passing this way.

Sing me a song of times that you knew
When the waters were clear and the seabirds they flew
Through a sky that was clear from the sea to the land
Safe from the fear and destruction of man.

Whale song, soft and low
Sing a story as gently you go
Whale song, I hear what you say
This may be the last time you're passing this way.

Song of the whale so sweet and so clear
But no song at all to the ones who won't hear
And if people don't listen, and if people don't know
Might the song of the man be the next song to go.

Whale song continue to sing
There's a place in this world for each living thing
So long, but just for today
'Cause people will listen and I know there's a way.

Whale song continue to sing
There's a place in this world for each living thing
So long, but just for today
'Cause people will listen and I know there's a way.
