lyrics

A chill in the air
Going nowhere

And I’m lost

Someone show me the way


It’s way past the noon

Goodbye Sun

Hey moon

And I’m lost

Someone bring back the day


When there's no sign of home

You’re not on your own

Take the hand that offers love


Feel The kindness

Be the kindness

See the kindness

Feed on that kindness



Time to get wise

No one lives twice.

Make the most

Reach out

Speak

Say hello!


It’s a lonely old world
Every boy

Every girl

Count the cost

Dig deep

Pay what you owe


Pick up the phone

Show them they’re not alone

Be the hand that offers love


Feel the kindness…


Or we might as well stop kicking

and go down

Might as well stop swimming

and go drown



We’re one family

But some cannot see

How we fit
All the same

Beneath this skin


Look closely

You will see
I am

You are me

Be the hand that offers love


Feel the kindness…

Be the kindness…
Feed on that kindness
