Lyrics

V1
His flight had been delayed –he was killing time
She was laying over – half way home.
When that blizzard hit O’Hare at Christmas time
And caught those two ex-lovers on their own.

Chorus
You can blame things on the weather – but it’s the human heart
That can brings folks all together – or tear them all apart
So try to remember, when you don’t know what to say
That a little kindness goes a long, long way.

V2
Once upon a time they’d found heaven – and then hell;
And what could have been, of course, we’ll never know.
‘Cause it fair to say that things did not end well
When their hurtful words fell like that blowing snow.

Chorus

Bridge
Oh so suddenly . . . they stood there face to face
Frozen with emotions that time would not erase.
Sometimes I have to wonder what we were thinking of . . .
And why folks sometimes hurt the ones they love . . .

V3
Now I will not disclose if either raised their voice
I won’t say if they somehow made amends.
But I will whisper we all have a choice -
So you decide how the story ends.

Chorus

Ending
Nothing can ease a mind like doing something kind
Do something kind today.
