lyrics

Go Gently

Go gently, go gently on yourself sometime.
Don’t leave your poor heart on the Line.
You call yourself failure,
Speak to yourself with that harsh voice inside,
Well your life is always pushing against the tide.

Now this world can be a cold and lonely place sometimes.
For sure, a very troublesome place, I find.
Takes time to learn
The way to turn
Towards yourself a friendly face.

Deal kindly, deal tender by yourself, my friend.
Well you know it comes down to this in the end.
Just the way you walk and talk with you- your own self.
Illuminates or poisons everything you do.

Now this world can be a hard and lonely place sometimes.
For sure, a very difficult place, I find.
Takes time to learn
The way to turn
Towards yourself a friendly face.

Stand gracious, stand honourable within your own skin.
Now where else does anything begin?
Cultivating a kindly inside place- come onside.
Little stone in the water, circles spreading out wide,

Now this world can be such a cold and lonely place.
For sure, a very troublesome place.
Takes time to learn
The way to turn
Towards yourself a friendly face.
