Oh Lydia My dear friend Why must this put the back on you Please not again Oh precious girl You know you're the reason for every rainbow You put the colors in the sky So please don't cry Oh Lydia [Chorus] Please be gentle And please be kind 'Cause she don't want to push back Everything she's learned She'll loose her mind So please be patient And you may find That when you wait for her to come to you She'll come in time So remember Russian girl That you're the one that makes me laugh And without your ready sarcasm This world would fall flat And remember Russian girl That you're the one that makes me smile So put your hands up to the sky And grab a star 'Cause that's what you are [Chorus] Please be gentle And please be kind 'Cause she don't want to push back Everything she's learned She'll loose her mind So please be patient And you may find That when you wait for her to come to you She'll come in time Please not again She's been through this world and back But when she dances She'll make you smile So please be gentle That's my best friend And if you haven't met here yet Well until then Please be patient That's my best friend And she's the best I've ever met So thank you God And Amen
