Luke Eelman - Familiar Strangers Lyrics

You see people every day but never know their names
Maybe sitting in a coffee shop or riding on the train
You may exchange some idle words about weather or the news
But nothing's really said between them and you
Familiar strangers passing through
You don't really know 'em
But you kinda think you do
Sometimes you make up stories about what those people do
Watching them to pick up on some sort of a clue
You really only do it just to kill some time
When you just need something to occupy your mind
Familiar strangers passing through
You don't really know 'em
But you kinda think you do
Maybe that guy is a lawyer, maybe that guy fixes clocks
Maybe she's a grade school teacher, maybe that guy works with stocks
Imagination drifts but you'll never really know
The truth behind where all those people go
Familiar strangers passing through
You don't really know 'em
But you kinda think you do
These people form the background of your normal day
You see them for a while then they go away
But you know the situation is just a point of view
Cause remember that to them you're just a stranger too
Familiar strangers passing through
You don't really know 'em
But you kinda think you do
Familiar strangers passing through
You don't really know 'em
But you kinda think you do
