Lyrics The Street and the Stranger - The Winter Passing

The Street and the Stranger

Sit with my dog and I think about the ways
I don’t feel safe in any other place
Keys between my fingers at night
A lesson I learned when I was five
And you can’t say that you know how we feel
Tell me you’re alright, of course I care
I just feel, I feel, I feel scared
I feel so much these days
Tell me you’re okay, okay, okay with the change
You just have to open your eyes
Everyone’s got plots and schemes
They’ve got places to be
They’re all out to get me
I don’t know if I can do this anymore
Hope Frank knows that I still care
And I hope my family still know that I try
And I hope society thinks I’m fine
‘Cause God forbid the day that they think otherwise
God forbid the day, God forbid the day, God forbid the day
God forbid the day, God forbid the day, God forbid the day
Tell me you’re alright, of course I care
I just feel, I feel, I feel scared
I feel so much these days
Tell me you’re okay, okay, okay with the change
You just have to, you just have to open your eyes
I don’t believe in the perfect world you’re searching for
I don’t believe in it
I don’t believe in the perfect world you’re searching for
‘Cause I don’t exist in it
