Everything (apron Full Of Stains) Letra

I try to be polite and make nice conversation but

the foods no good she doesn't seem to even notice me here

her shoulders slumped I see her tear stained eyes head back through

the double swingin doors serving pies was not her goal in life

I leave a tip like I think Jesus would and smile

"thanks alot, have a nice day" and I'm on my way

Jesus what would You do?

can you teach me how to love like You? ohh...



I wanna give you everything

but I've got nothing of my own at all

and if I give what I have not got

will You fill me up and make me whole, yeah



I see him sittin by the side of the building near the street sign

he's got a sign saying "I will work for food"

he looks up with his glazed over eyes says

"how 'bout a dollar for a veteran, a fellow american"

empty stomach, empty mind, empty soul

have I got the time to feed him a little broken bread? no.

do I toss up a prayer as I walk on by, or give him a tract

and a weak fake smile or do I take the time to show him a little love?

don't feel like I've got anything to give, so I guess I've got nothing to lose

yeah-e-yeah



I wanna give You everything

but I've got nothing of my own at all

and if I give what I have not got

will You fill me up and make me whole



I come back a couple weeks later see the

same apron, same stains, same splint end hair pulled back

she comes near and says "hey mister, your smile picked me up

the other day, just thought I'd say thanks"

well I don't know why it takes all my effort to try yeah-e-yeah



I wanna give You everything

but I've got nothing of my own at all

and if I give what I have not got

will You fill me up and make me whole

make me whole, make me whole



she walks to the table with an apron full of stains

and asks "hey sir what can I get for you today?"
