Alone as I sit and watch the trees 

Won't you tell me if I scream will they bend down and listen to me 

And it makes me wonder if I know the words will you come 

Or will you laugh at me 

Or will I run 

Little boy says to me, 

"Where you goin' now son" 

I said, "I don't know where I'm goin' boy 

I only know where I'm from" 

And it makes me wonder 

If the stars shine when my eyes close 

Or does my brothers heart cry 

I don't know 

I'm a stranger in my home 

Now that everybody's gone 

Someone please talk to me 

Cause I feel you cry 

And you're sitting with him 

And I know I'll never see you again 

Lying down in Charleston under the Carolina sky 

You see I'm tired of feeling this pain 

I'm tired of living my own little lie 

And it makes me wonder 

When I see you in my dreams 

Does it mean anything 

Are you trying to talk to me 

I'm a stranger in my home 

Tell me are you feeling alone 

Someone tell me what to do 

'Cause I'm feeling strong 

And I wonder how you feel 

Do you realize my pain is for real 

I see you in my dreams 

And I wonder if you're looking down at me 

And smiling right now 

I wanna know if it's true 

When he looks at me 

Won't you tell me 

Does he realize he came down here 

And he took you too soon 

And now my days are short an my nights are long 

I lay down with memories of you keep that keep me going on, going on 

It makes me wonder as I sit and stare 

Will I see your face again 

Tell me, do you care 

I'm a stranger in my home 

Living life on my own 

Right now I just can't see 

'Cause i'm feeling weak 

And my sould begins to bleed 

And no one is listening to me, not even the trees
