歌詞

Down the shelf, behind the tea

A little jar waits patiently

Twist the lid and there it is

That deep and sleepy smell

A little jar of somewhere far

With stories it won't tell

Some gifts are loud and some are small

The small ones warm you most of all

Good things come in small dark beans

And patient little ways

The kindest part of any gift

Is how it fills the days

I pour a handful, dark and round

They rattle like soft rain

A promise in my open palm

That slow is worth the wait

Good things come in small dark beans

And patient little ways

The kindest part of any gift

Is how it fills the days

Mmm... mmm... mmm

Good things come in small dark beans

And patient little ways

The kindest part of any gift

Is how it fills the days

Down the shelf, behind the tea

Good things wait patiently
