about

Be Kind to Strangers - Words and Music by Mary Ann Vorasky, copyright 2019.

We're all strangers until we get to know each other better. Be kind to those you meet, and if you find you are having a hard time doing that, then be kind to yourself first so that you can develop the skill within and feel the difference it makes.

lyrics

Someone else’s familiar face
Is waiting at the window
Of someone else’s favorite place
Not for me to come in, though.

Should I keep to the road
Look down at my feet
Turn the other cheek?

There’s a time to be shy
A time to be bolder
And nothing is colder
Than 'the shoulder'

Be Kind, Be Kind
Be Kind to Strangers
Be Kind, Be Kind
Be Kind to Strangers

So here I am, a different face
Won’t you look into my eyes
And smile at this once-empty space
That I now occupy?

There’s a time to be shy
A time to be bolder
And nothing is colder
Than 'the shoulder'

Be Kind, Be Kind
Be Kind to Strangers
Be Kind, Be Kind
Be Kind to Strangers

Be Kind, Be Kind
Be Kind to Strangers
Be Kind, Be Kind
Be Kind to Strangers
