Radney Foster - The Kindness Of Strangers lyrics

He was nervous and excited when he walked in She poured him a drink and they discussed the price of sin She had unbu*toned just two bu*tons And put her hand upon his thigh And when that grown man started crying She did not blink an eye She just held him in her arms like a little child And she laid there an' listened to him talk for a long, long while He rambled on about the lawyers And the family torn in two. He said, now it's like this: I'm empty I'm just tryin' to get through And the kindness of strangers The tears of angels And the wonderin' how to let go When the heartache's all you trust The quiet of cathedrals To cut through the evil There's some little ray of hope While you watch love turn to rust And your soul is bleeding What you really need is The kindness of strangers He put on his coat and he headed for the door She said, you never got what you paid me for She said, I don't need to keep this money He said, yeah, you do And she said, I don't pray much But, Honey, I'll pray for you And the kindness of strangers The kisses of angels And letting go even though The heartache's all you trust The quiet of cathedrals The wings of eagles To carry you some hope Even though love's turned to rust When you really need it Cause your soul is bleeding The kindness of strangers The kindness of strangers
