Songtexte

I can feel a difference today, a difference
All of us in our tents
Fearing God like a mistress
We lay on the rocks in the sun
Watching you and your mama ruin
I sat up and blinked when you appeared
So pale you were nearly clear
Later I stumbled to my bed
All alone in the brown chest
I lay in the dark thinking about all
Of my friends and their changes
And I do not know if you know
Just what you have done
You are the sweetest one
I have ever laid my eyes upon
It's a beautiful town
With the rain coming down
Blackberry, rosemary, Jimmy Crack Corn
You got the run of the place
Now that you're running around
And make kindness, kindness, kindness abound
In this hour of our lives
Hour of effortless plenty
How do we know which parts of our hearts
Want what with such base generosity?
Taking so many photographs, soon may'st we never
Seen a baby so newly born
And when the bulb's new flash says, "Bright as morning"
The crowd keeps on gathering like an electric storm
The phantom of love moves among us at will
Each phantom limb lost has got an angel
So confused, like the wagging bob-tail of a bulldog
Kindness, kindness prevails, kindness prevails
Ties and rails, ties and rails
Fall into line bearing kindness
Where will you go if not here?
What will you say when you write to us?
And this is a world of terrible hardship everywhere
And I search for words to set you at ease
But there in my looking glass, a card is soaring
Still in my warring heart and my trembling knees
Clean as the breeze, bright as the day
All of the people gather to say
Sweet as May, sweet as May, oh
I believe love will always surround you
Brave as a bear with a heart rare and true
But if you are scared, if you are blue
I have prepared this small song for you
Sweet as May, sweet as May, oh
Sweet as May, sweet as May, oh
Sweet as May, as May
