Bob Corbin, Randy Van Warmer (Bro N' Sis Music,BMI;Coljes,BMI; Dixie Stars Music/Vanwarmer Music,ASCAP ) 1995 Stand on any corner, on any street in any town Choose any one you see, pick any face out of the crowd If you could take a look inside, read the pages like a book You'd see pa**ion and desire, fury and fire Anywhere you care to look Every stranger has a story, every heart has a tale to tell Every life has it's pain and glory, a fall from grace, an escape from hell Every stranger has a story, so listen well
You walk right by someone, you don't know where he's been What he's seen and what he's done, or what's been done to him Don't judge him by his cover, all that glitters isn't gold For every line in his face, there's a time and place When his blood ran hot or his luck ran cold Every stranger has a story... From the first cry, to the final sigh, like actor in a play The scenes unfold, the story's told, a page is turned each pa**ing day Every stranger has a story...
