Just arrived on the seventen
Thought I'd see the old gang again
But you know how they come and go
I'm just a stranger in town
Evrywhere, ev'ryone I see
Seems to wonder who I can be
And I swear, no one seems to care about a stranger in town
I saw a cottage on a lonely old street
The weeds have grown 'round the gate
Somehow I felt that you would wait here, my sweet
But it looks like I'm too late
Guess I'll leave on the twelveohtwo
Can't believe that there's no more you
Is there nothing for me
Will I always be a stranger in my own home town
I asked around by no one knew you by name
I wonder where you are now
I always hoped that things would be just the same
And that you'd wait for me somehow
Guess I'll leave on the twelveohtwo
Now that you have found someone new
Is there nothing for me
Will I always be a stranger in my own home town
I saw a cottage on a lonely old street
The weeds have grown 'round the gate
Somehow I felt that you would wait here, my sweet
But it looks like I'm too late
Guess I'll leave on the twelveohtwo
Can't believe that there's no more you
Is there nothing for me
When you're a stranger in your own home town
