Just a smile, just a glance The prince of darkness He just walked past There's been a lot of evil There've been a lot of sayin' But this time I'm gonna tell it my way: There was a town Strange, lonely little town, they called 'The World' A lovely, lovely little town 'Till one day a stranger appeared And their hearts rejoiced, and the sad little town was happy again But there were some that doubted; they disbelieved, so they mocked him And the stranger, he went away Now the sad little town that was sad yesterday Is a lot sadder today... I walked in a lot of places that he never should have been But I know that the Messiah, he will come again
