Lyrics
god bless you my angel, you said
and in your eyes, i saw
so much kindness, tender thoughts
yes, i've seen you before
i meant to ask for your name
i felt awkward and shy, i was leaving when
i noticed your wheelchair
what happened, how come
you're waiting here
on madison avenue
for the kindness of strangers like me
someone must care for you
your clothes are soft and clean and blue
say, would you do this on your own?
your shoes are carefully tied
they look real new, real white
you've never walked in them
what happened, how come
you're waiting here
on madison avenue
for the kindness of strangers like me.
and if i could i'd have you walk again
if i had the hands of jesus
i wanna keep you warm, i wanna hold you
i need a miracle right now
i need a miracle right here
on madison avenue
on madison avenue
i see peace in your eyes
i feel your troubles in your soul
you sit still while we're all
just running by
i'd like to be ny your side
and find out how your smile's so sweet, so kind
inspite of everything
what happened, how come
you're waiting here
on madison avenue
for the kindness of strangers like me
