A Stranger In My Place

I see the town where you were born

I see the place you 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 now where we quarrelled

I can see I was wrong

I can see where you might weaken when I wasn't strong

I see memories 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

So 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 now through your tear filled eyes no love on your face

I must get used to seeing strangers in my place
