Foy Vance - Indiscriminate Act Of Kindness lyrics

She came from the cold, wet Dropped her luggage bags, looked the concierge in the eye Said "I need a room for the night But I don't got no money, would you take payment in kind?" He said "It's alright I got a room here, you can share mine Make the bed in the morning, that'll do fine You can change in the bathroom, hang your clothes on the line" A tear came to her eye, she thought "How could he be so kind?" How could he be so kind? How could he be so kind? She sat down on the bed with a needle And he said, "I'd hate to see you bleed I'll just fetch a warm towel then sit here 'til you're dry" She started to cry, saying "Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why?" Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness She was cold turkey, he was holding her hand And she said, "I was ruined by man and this was never in my plans I dreamed of men who loved me, together we'd see the world Somehow I lost myself among the insults they hurled" "I'm sure you're a wonderful woman And some day there will surely be someone So just relax, it's important that you're calm" She said, "How is it you can see past me as I am?" Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness "See, when you took your chances, it was like you placed a bet And sometimes this is the reward you can get I was always told, if you see someone defiled You should look them in the eye and smile Take their hand or better still take them home Home Home She awoke early in the morning Made the bed, gathered up her clothes to leave Saw the concierge curled on the settee Said "What you did for me is hard for me to believe" "I was just doing what was right Nobody that knows love could leave you out there on such a night If you can help someone, bear this in mind And consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness" Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Consider it an indiscriminate act of kindness Of kindness
