Eyes of a Stranger by Richelle Sigrist Lyrics
I can see your future
Like a river, flows with lies
Like a tree, growing higher
With roots, deep in pride
Yeah, I'm talking to you
I see right through those vaulted eyes
Deep inside a weathered soul
Full of heartache and broken ties
You stay alone
You say it's home
But you know good and well
You long to see yourself
Through the eyes of a stranger
You can laugh if you want to
Go ahead, deny the truth
Call me names and say I'm crazy
It's not me that's playing the fool
You stay alone
You say it's home
But you know good and well
You long to see yourself
Through the eyes of a stranger
It's not because you're wrong
It's not because you're on your own
It's not because you're strong
It makes you think that you belong
It's not to give you peace
It's not to turn your other cheek
It's not to make you weak
It never gives you what you need
It's not because you're wrong
It's not because you're on your own
It's not because you're strong
It makes you think that you belong
It's not to give you peace
It's not to turn your other cheek
It's not to make you weak
It never gives you what you need
You stay alone
You say it's home
But you know good and well
You long to see yourself
Through the eyes of a stranger
Like a river, flows with lies
Like a tree, growing higher
With roots, deep in pride
Yeah, I'm talking to you
I see right through those vaulted eyes
Deep inside a weathered soul
Full of heartache and broken ties
You stay alone
You say it's home
But you know good and well
You long to see yourself
Through the eyes of a stranger
You can laugh if you want to
Go ahead, deny the truth
Call me names and say I'm crazy
It's not me that's playing the fool
You stay alone
You say it's home
But you know good and well
You long to see yourself
Through the eyes of a stranger
It's not because you're wrong
It's not because you're on your own
It's not because you're strong
It makes you think that you belong
It's not to give you peace
It's not to turn your other cheek
It's not to make you weak
It never gives you what you need
It's not because you're wrong
It's not because you're on your own
It's not because you're strong
It makes you think that you belong
It's not to give you peace
It's not to turn your other cheek
It's not to make you weak
It never gives you what you need
You stay alone
You say it's home
But you know good and well
You long to see yourself
Through the eyes of a stranger
