From the recording TIME STAND STILL
Lyrics
STRANGER IN MY HOMETOWN
Terrence Hart
[VERSE]
I sing my songs on crowded streets
Where neon lights can make you blind
And city rush beneath my feet
Leave restless echoes in my mind
[PRE-CHORUS]
This winding road’s long and lonely
But hope’s weighing heavy on me
[CHORUS]
I’m a stranger in my hometown
Feels like the world is out of place
Still, I stand here, roots deep down
Hope lifts my heart, a gentle grace
I’m a stranger in my hometown
I’m not a thing you can erase
Each step I take, I won’t back down
I’m a stranger in my hometown
Yeah, a stranger in my hometown
[VERSE]
If doors stay closed, I’ll stay the same
I found my peace inside the sound
This road still knows me by my name
That’s something they just can’t turn down
[PRE-CHORUS]
My childhood dreams still lead the way
I know I’ll find my place some day
[CHORUS]
I’m a stranger in my hometown
Feels like the world is out of place
Still, I stand here, roots deep down
Hope lifts my heart, a gentle grace
I’m a stranger in my hometown
I’m not a thing you can erase
Each step I take, I won’t back down
I’m a stranger in my hometown
Yeah, a stranger in my hometown
[BRIDGE]
So, I’ll keep singing strong and true
Until the stars all fades away
This song’s enough to pull me through
‘Till morning brings a brand-new day
[CHORUS]
I’m a stranger in my hometown
Feels like the world is out of place
Still, I stand here, roots deep down
Hope lifts my heart, a gentle grace
I’m a stranger in my hometown
I’m not a thing you can erase
Each step I take, I won’t back down
I’m a stranger in my hometown
Yeah, a stranger in my hometown
[OUTRO CHORUS]
I’m a stranger in my hometown
Feels like the world is out of place
Still, I stand here, roots deep down
Hope lifts my heart, a gentle grace
I’m a stranger in my hometown
I’m not a thing you can erase
Each step I take, I won’t back down
I’m a stranger in my hometown
Yeah, a stranger in my hometown
