All the Kindness Left in Town
[Verse 1]
I saw a man with a shopping cart,
Full of rain and broken parts,
He said, “Son, it’s cheaper to fall apart
Than mend what’s gotten old.”
The church bell rang, the clouds stood still,
They’re knocking down the old red mill,
And every dream up on the hill
Is priced but never sold.
[Chorus]
All the kindness left in town,
Lives above the laundromat now.
She folds her hope, she hangs her doubts,
And hums when the power goes out.
Oh, I’m still walking, looking around,
For all the kindness left in town.
[Verse 2]
The mayor’s got a brand-new plan,
To pave the park and ban the band,
He said, “Progress comes to those who can”
But must it be this way?
There’s paper hearts on window glass,
From children’s hands that never ask,
Why every little dream we’ve had
Just fades away.
[Chorus]
All the kindness left in town,
Lives above the laundromat now.
She folds her hope, she hangs her doubts,
And hums when the power goes out.
Oh, I’m still walking, looking around,
For all the kindness left in town.
[Bridge]
And if you find a penny, heads or tails,
Don’t throw it down; it still tells tales.
There’s luck in rust, there’s truth in rails,
There’s love that’s underpaid.
[Final Chorus]
All the kindness left in town,
Is hiding where the dim light falls down.
She hums a hymn, she won’t be found,
Still folding hopes in that small flat now.
Oh, I’m still walking, rain coming down,
Looking for kindness left in town.
