歌詞

A glass, a plate, two cookies —

A parade of one

I load the little wooden tray

With more than I will need

A cookie for the now-me

And one for later-me

Ten careful steps from here to there

The ice keeps ringing time

Arise and eat, the angel said

The journey's been enough

So I serve myself a small kindness

Made of simple stuff

The floorboards creak their old applause

The sun escorts me through

The window seat is set for one

With room enough for two

Arise and eat, the angel said

The journey's been enough

So I serve myself a small kindness

Made of simple stuff

Mmm... mmm... mmm

Arise and eat, the angel said

The journey's been enough

So I serve myself a small kindness

Made of simple stuff

A glass, a plate, two cookies

The parade has reached the sun
