Am I the tourist on your street?
Outside the cafe is where the thirty pluses meet.
And talk about the weather,
And things that you should see.
Am I the tourist on your street?
All day every other day,
(All day every other day)
Outside the coffee shop is what 20 somethings play.
And talk about whatever,
And laugh about TV.

Am I the tourist?
Am I the tourist your street?

'Cause when it comes to conversation,
He always plays it safe.
And if he's always in the open,
He always plays it cool.

Am I another passer by?
Outside your apartment on another Tuesday night.
You sleep a little better,
When somethings on TV.
Am I the tourist on your street?

All the time we hang around.
(All day every other day)
Give bad directions to the kids from out of town.
And now we are strangers,
The kind that never meet.

So I'm the tourist on your street.

'Cause when it comes to conversation,
He always plays it safe.
And if he's always in the open,
He always plays it cool.

So what are you up to these days?
And what are you up to now?
My other friends have all moved out of town.
Are we strangers forever?
Or are we strangers for now?

'Cause when it comes to conversation,
He always plays it safe.
But if he's always in the open,
He always plays it cool.
