V1
I smiled at a stranger today
She smiled back and kept walking her way
There was no time for words, and nothing to say
I smiled at a stranger today

V2
I took off my headphones today
heard busses, and bitchin, and children at play
The voice in my head wasn't screamin' your name
I took off my headphones today

Chorus1
And the sun it was shining
The sky it was blue
The concrete was broken
Just like me and you
My heart may never, be as good as new
But I smiled at a stranger today

V3
I called up my mama today
She asked how I'm doin' and I said okay
It wasn't a lie, and I guess that felt strange
When I called up my mama
I took out my headphones
I smiled at a stranger today

Chorus2
And the sun it was shining
The sky it was blue
The concrete was broken
Just like me and you
My heart may never, be as good as new
I took out my headphones today

V4
I turned off the porch light tonight
wasn't a beer or a teardrop in sight
Wasn't listen for engines or spooked by the quiet (different from recording)
I turned off the porch light tonight

Chorus3 and tag
And the moon is was shining
The sky it was black
And my dreams weren't all happy
But they weren't all sad
I'll never forget you, I'm okay with that
So I turned off the porch light
I took off my headphones,
I smiled at a stranger
Who smiled at a stranger
I smiled at a stranger today
