I look around me and what do I see?
Sadness surrounds me, alone as can be
With too much time and too much distance.
These chains that bind me,
They won`t set me free,
I look behind me and coming for me is my best friend, she`s my resistance.
So if you find yourself alone and so unkind,
And if you`ve asked yourself, over and over,
And even if your heartbeats hurt like goodbyes,
Try, try, try
Open your mind, spend some time,
With the gentle kind.
I was torn between the darkness and the light,
Lost to all belief that it could turn out right.
But my quiet friend turned me `round,
Made me see again.
Took my hand, said nothing much,
No lesson learned, just a gentle touch
And I am coming round, I am coming round again.
Chorus
`Cos in a hard world, with fastness and an eye on the money,
I heard a soft voice, saying `Never worry, hold on honey,`
When my world was gone, a whisper kind of eased my mind,
And I am holdin` on,
To the gentle kind
