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 thigs 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 of dreams

That don't come true,

I can see where I have fallen short

Of the things I promised you.

I can see mow throug my tear filled eyes no love on your face,

I must get used to seein' strangers in my place.
