Emmylou Harris. Cup of Kindness. Zeneszám

You gave yourself up to the mystery
And sailed the oceans looking for the secret of the key
To unlock a truth that you may never find
For it was in a cup of kindness all the time

You feel the thirst but none can make you drink
The answer's waiting for you here but it's not what you think
It won't steal your soul or leave you blind
It was just a cup of kindness all the time

And when Mother Mary finally comes to cal
She could pass right through your heart and leave no trace at all
While you were reaching for the sacred and divine
She was standing right beside you all the time

And the emptiness you can't seem to fill
Beauty fades and pleasures cannot take away the chili
And the glamor lures you down into a lie
O but the cup of kindness never will run dry

You hear the vandals howlin' down your walls
And arm yourself against the ones who want to see you fall
Till some Holy Grail reveals the grand design
Well, it was in a cup of kindness all the time
