[Music and Lyrics by Mel Torme]

Just arrived on the seven ten
Thought I’d see the old gang again
But you know how they come and go

I’m just a stranger in town
Ev’rywhere ev’ryone I see
Seems to wonder who I can be
And I swear no one seems to care
About a stranger in town

I saw a cottage on a lonely old street
The weeds’ve grown ‘round the gate
Somehow I felt that you would wait here
My sweet, but it looks like I’m too late

Guess I’ll leave on the twelve o’ two
Can’t believe that there’s no more you
Is there nothing for me
Will I always be
A stranger in town
