| 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?»

|
| 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?»

| «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

|
| 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»
