Plenty

Every one of us is sometimes blind
We don’t see and we can’t hear
Sometimes desire is so unkind
And brings exactly what we fear

I was feeling like a broken bell
I had nothing left inside
Pouring out the pitcher from a deeper well
My cup may look empty, but I’ve got plenty

You can play your hand like it’s all or none
Afraid of losing what you’ve found
But like the sun shines on everyone
More than enough to go around

What I give away comes back to me
But I’m not bartering a deal
Kindness costs me nothing; love is free
My cup may look empty, but I’ve got plenty

Maybe nothing in my pocket but my hand
Nowhere I can go but where I stand
No one in this world belongs to me
And from those open spaces I can see

I was feeling like a broken bell
I had nothing left inside
Pouring out the pitcher from a deeper well
My cup may look empty, but I’ve got plenty

My cup may look empty, but I’ve got plenty
