I passed you on a street in town today

And my heart ached in an old familiar way

I thought of things I'd like to say should I catch your eye

And just like a stranger you walked right on by



I stood there on the corner of the street

The same old corner where we once used to meet

I know you saw the teardrops falling from my eyes

But just like a stranger you walked right on by

[ steel ]

I've walked with you down this old street before

But I'll never walk it with you anymore

I smiled and said hello to you but you made no reply

Instead like a stranger you walked right on by

Just like a stranger you walked right on by
