Cup Of Kindness

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 m a cup of kindness all the time

You feel the thirst, but none can make you drink

The answer is 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 call

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 chill

And the glamour 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

'Til some Holy Grail reveals the grand design

Well it was in a cup of kindness all the time

And when Mother Mary finally comes to call

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
