She came in from the cold, wet
Dropped her luggage bags, looked the concierge in the eye
Said "I need the 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 and 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
He said "Oh, how I hate to see you bleed
I'll just fetch a warm towel, I'll sit with you till your dry"
She started to cry saying "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
She said "I was ruined by a man, and this was never in my plans
I dreamed of men who loved me, and together we'd see the world
But 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 now, it's important that you're calm"
She said "How is it that 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
"When your took your chances, it was like you placed a bet
Sometimes this is the reward you can get
I 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"
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 was hard for me to believe"
"I was just doing what was right
No one 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
An indiscriminate act of kindness
