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 now
Where we quarreled
I can see now I was wrong
I can see where you might we came
Where I wasn't strong
I see memories of a love gone bad
But time cannot erase
I see sadness, I see sorrow
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've never showed you
And now I lie alone
And wonder why
I can see now
Where you might grow up
So 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 my tear-filled eyes
No love on your face
But I just can't see a stranger in my place
I just can't see a stranger in my place
No, I just can't see a stranger in my place
No, I just can't see a stranger in my place
