Todd Rundgren - Kindness lyrics

The one that showed me kindness Was the one that taught me kindness Though i did not recognize it Still i might have died without it And when i awakened It was too late to thank her If i live someday i'll make repayment And show someone the kindness she showed me When my voice grows strident When i feel important I'm reminded of that kindness And where i'd be without it I'm learning my lessons It may take me a lifetime Give me strength to justify my being And show someone the kindness shown to me
