She goes around switching on lamps 'Cause the light, she tells me, is coming in slanted I can't get enough Of the beauty alive behind the shadows Why have I gone hungry? I've gone hungry In a land of plenty Feed your soul Feed your soul If you are empty and you want to be whole Feed your soul On bread and water Truth and silence, all sons and daughters Feed your soul The heart cries, but the body growls And the appetite of the flesh is louder Than we thought Let the flickering flame of our appointed days Not thirst, nor die, But grow brighter And when a longing haunts you Feed your soul Feed your soul If you are empty and you want to be whole Feed your soul
On bread and water Truth and silence, all sons and daughters Feed your soul Hope born of promise That will not disappoint That will not end in shame You've got to cultivate the taste For the rich and true For the goodness you Have always craved Feed your soul Feed your soul If you are empty and you want to be whole Feed your soul On bread and water Truth and silence, all sons and daughters Feed your soul Feed your soul, feed your soul If you are empty, though your days are full If you are empty, though your house is full If you are empty, though your pockets are full Feed your soul, feed your soul Feed your soul, feed your soul Feed your soul, feed your soul
