i saw her face the other day
the kind of smile that lights a room
a story mapped out in a way
i'll never know the answers to
she's just a stranger
i may never see again
someone's daughter
a lover or a friend
i wonder what part did i play
i'm just an extra in her life
she went and made my day
i guess i'll never know oh
so wrapped up in the stories of our lives oh
and unaware of the ones still passing by oh
we're all living in asunder
i saw a man say hello
well i could see it in his eyes
was it good news on the phone
oh how it took him by surprise
he's just a stranger
i may never see again
someone's brother
a father or a friend
i wonder if he'll be okay
he's just an extra in my life
the words that i could say
to make him feel alright
oh
so wrapped up in the stories of our lives oh oh
and unaware of the ones still passing by oh
we're living in summer
and are they kind
where are they from
what do they do
who do they love
i guess i'll never know
but it doesn't matter anyway
i wonder what part did i play
i'm just an extra in their life
they went and made made my day
i guess they'll never know
