The Gentle Kind Lyrics - Aztec Camera

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, yeah 

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 

She took my hand, said nothing much 

No lesson learned, just a gentle touch 

And I was coming 'round 

I am, I am coming 'round again 

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 

'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 

She took my hand, said nothing much 

No lesson learned, just a soft touch 

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 

Open your mind 

Spend some time with the gentle kind 

Open your mind 

Spend some time with the gentle kind
