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 There's this strange, little town, they called 'The World' It's a lovely, lovely little town 'Til 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 I've never should have been But I know that the Messiah, He will come again
