Lyrics

[00:18.54] Acts of kindness
[00:22.25] like breadcrumbs in a fairytale forest
[00:28.09] Lead us past dangers as light melts the darkness
[00:36.02] But I don't believe, and I'm not consoled
[00:45.55] I lean closer to the fire, but I'm cold
[00:56.51] The earth was born in a storm
[00:59.92] The waters receded, the mountains were formed
[01:04.29] "The universe loves a drama," you know
[01:08.79] And ladies and gentlemen this is the show
[01:13.83] I got a call from my broker
[01:18.01] The broker informed me I'm broke
[01:21.87] I was dealing my last hand of poker
[01:26.32] My cards were useless as smoke
[01:30.53] Oh, guardian angel
[01:36.95] Don't taunt me like this, on a clear
[01:40.72] summer evening as soft as a kiss
[01:50.48] My children are laughing, not a whisper of care
[01:58.67] My love is brushing her long chestnut hair
[02:06.87] I don't believe a heart can be filled to the brim
[02:16.51] Then vanish like mist as though life were a whim
[02:26.49] Maybe the heart is part of the mist
[02:30.09] And that's all that there is or could ever exist
[02:34.98] Maybe and maybe and maybe some more
[02:39.53] Maybe's the exit that I'm looking for
[02:44.12] I got a call from my broker
[02:48.51] The broker said he was mistaken
[02:53.06] Maybe some virus or brokerage joke
[02:57.45] And he hopes that my faith isn't shaken
[03:01.52] Acts of kindness
[03:07.50] Like rain in a draught
[03:11.94] Release the spirit with a whoop and a shout
[03:19.28] I don't believe we were born to be sheep in a flock
