Stranger in My Place

(Kenny Rogers - Kin Vassy)



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 how I was wrong

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

I see mem'ries of a love gone bad that time can't erase

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



No one seems to know you quite like I do

And no one knows the things that make you cry like I do

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

I must get used to seein' a stranger in my place.



I must get used to seein' a stranger in my place...
