[Verse 1] How do you break through When the words don't meet your lips And lump inside your throat Or in a pile of could've beens All the small talk and the catch up and the empty promises How do you dive deeper In a shallow riverbed When the current pulls you further From what you should've said
[Chorus] Getting by on the kindness of strangers Getting by on the kindness of strangers
[Verse 2] When you're trying to be tender But instead you come off cold When your sweetness surrenders To the cruelness of this world All the small stuff and the bad luck When it all becomes too much How do you find solace In a place so quick to judge Do you try and play it cool Play the part you think they want
[Chorus] Getting by on the kindness of strangers Getting by on the kindness of strangers (Kindness of strangers) (Kindness of strangers)
[Verse 3] People come and people go And some will make their mark Like an iron to the bowl A cymbal in your heart And the ones that stick around Are the hardest ones to find And if you can't find the closest You need the kindness to survive
[Chorus] Getting by on the kindness of strangers Getting by on the kindness of strangers Getting by (kindness of strangers) Getting by (kindness of strangers) (Kindness of strangers) (Kindness of strangers)Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
