Compassion Songtext
von Lucinda Williams

Have compassion for everyone you meet
Even if they don′t want it what seems conceived
There's always a sign
Always a sign
Always a sign

For those who encounter
Have compassion
Even if they don′t want it
What seems bad manners
Is always a sign
Always a sign
Always a sign


Always a sign of things that waste effort
Always a sign of things no eyes have seen
You do not know
What wars are going on down there
Where the spirit meets the bone
Down there where the spirit meets the bone
Down where the spirit meets the bone

For everyone you listen to
Have compassion
Even if they don't want it
What seems cynicism
Is always a sign
Always a sign
Always a sign

Always a sign of things no ears have heard
Always a sign of things no eyes have seen
You do not know
What wars are going on down there
Where the spirit meets the bone
Down there where the spirit meets the bone
Down where the spirit meets the bone
Down there where the spirit meets the bone
Down there where the spirit meets the bone
Down where the spirit meets the bone
