Bill Anderson - Stranger In My Place lyrics

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 weaken and 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 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 my tear filled eyes

No love on your face

But I still can't see a stranger in my place...
