As I Sat Sadly By Her Side
As I sat sadly by her side<br />
At the window, through the glass<br />
She stroked a kitten in her lap<br />
And we watched the world as it fell past<br />
<br />
Softly she spoke these words to me<br />
With brand new eyes, open wide<br />
We pressed our faces to the glass<br />
As I sat sadly by her side<br />
<br />
She said, father, mother, sister, brother<br />
Uncle, aunt and nephew, niece<br />
Soldier, sailor, physician, laborer<br />
Actor, scientist, mechanic, priest<br />
<br />
Earth and moon and sun and stars<br />
And planets and comets with tails blazin'<br />
All are there forever fallin'<br />
Fallin' lovely and amazin'<br />
<br />
Then she smiled and turned to me<br />
And waited for me to reply<br />
Her hair was fallin' down her shoulders<br />
As I sat sadly by her side<br />
<br />
As I sat sadly by her side<br />
The kitten she did gently pass<br />
Over to me and again we pressed<br />
Our different faces to the glass<br />
<br />
That may be very well, I said<br />
But watch the one fallin' in the street<br />
See him gesture to his neighbors<br />
And see him trampled beneath their feet<br />
<br />

All outward motion connects to nothin'<br />
For each is concerned with their immediate need<br />
Witness the man reachin' up from the gutter<br />
See the other one stumblin' on who can not see<br />
<br />
With tremblin' hand I turned toward her<br />
And pushed the hair out of her eyes<br />
The kitten jumped back to her lap<br />
As I sat sadly by her side<br />
<br />
Then she drew the curtains down<br />
And said, oh, when will you ever learn?<br />
That what happens there beyond the glass<br />
Is simply none of your concern<br />
<br />
God has given you but one heart<br />
You are not a home for the hearts of your brothers<br />
And God does not care for your benevolence<br />
Anymore than he cares for the lack of it in others<br />
<br />
Nor does he care for you to sit<br />
At windows in judgment of the world He created<br />
While sorrows pile up around you<br />
Ugly, useless and over inflated<br />
<br />
At which she turned her head away<br />
Great tears leapin' from her eyes<br />
I could not wipe the smile from my face<br />
As I sat sadly by her side<br />
<br />
As I sat sadly by her side<br />
As I sat sadly by her side<br />
As I sat sadly by her side
