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 on your face,
|
But I just can't see a stranger in my place.
|
|
I can see where we quarreled.
|
I can see 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.
|
And, looking back, it seems I never showed you
|
And now I lay alone and wonder why.
|
|
I can see where you might grow tired of dreams
|
That don't come true.
|
I can see where I have fallen short
|
Of things I promised you.
|
I can see through my tear-filled eyes
|
No love on your face.
|
I must get used to seein' strangers in my place.
|
|
I must get used to seein' strangers in my place.
