Every time the phone rings I pray it might be you That you thought out all the answers Wanna get back together again Oh but a strangers voice rings through my ears And though I listen you are all I hear And girl I didn't mean to drive you away People come and go so fast But all I see is your face There's an old man on the corner Just staring at the sea I wanna hold him like a broken doll Ask him if he's lonely like me The waves crash like a violent dream The mist flies and the seagulls scream And the old man he sees nothing just stares into space And me all I can see is your face Now I know there are no promises in love You've gotta give it all you have And hope that maybe you can share Maybe you can share your life with someone A Stranger touches me and all I can feel Is your embrace A stranger looks my way And all I ever see is your face I've got my songs to protect me I've got my friends to ease the pain They say time will heal this emptiness Girl without you it ain't the same I don't see any stars tonight Just the darkness of the city lights I close my eyes once more and try to escape And all I can see is your face
