A Stranger In Town Composer(s): Mel Tormé Performer(s): Mel Tormé and multiple other artists
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
Ev'rywhere, 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 twelve - oh - two 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 but 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 twelve - oh - two Now that you have found someone new Is there nothing for me? Will I always be A stranger in my own home town?
It hurts to be alone with no one of your own When you're a stranger in your own home town
