A Stranger in My Place

A stranger in my place

I see the town
Where we were born
I see the place
We were raised
I see all the things you wanted
That I never gave.
I see sadness
I see sorrow
I see pain in your face
But I just can't see
A stranger in my place.
I can see now
Where we quarrelled
I can see now I was wrong
I can see where you might weaken
When I wasn't strong.
I see mem'ries of a love gone bad
That time cannot erase
But I just can't see
A stranger in my place.
No one seems to know you
Quite like I do
No one knows the things
That make you cry.
Looking back it seems
I never showed you
And now I lay alone
And wonder why
I can see now
Where you might grow tired ofdreams
That don't come true
I can see where
I have fallen short
Of the things I promised you.
I can see now throug
My tear filled eyes
No love on your face
But I just can't see
A stranger in my place.
