Lyrics
Before all of this ever went down
Reflecting on a time before current events unfolded
In another place, another town
Describing a different location or setting
You were just a face in the crowd
Addressing an individual who was not prominent or noticed
You were just a face in the crowd
Reiteration of being an unnoticed person in a group
Out in the street, walking around
Engaging in ordinary activities outdoors
A face in the crowd
Emphasizing being part of the anonymous crowd
Out of a dream, out of the sky
Transitioning from a dreamlike state to reality
Into my heart, into my life
Expressing the impact on emotions and life
And you were just a face in the crowd
Reiterating the previous anonymity in the crowd
You were just a face in the crowd
Reemphasizing being unnoticed while in public
Out in the street, thinking out loud
Being outside, contemplating thoughts audibly
A face in the crowd
Affirming the feeling of being just one among many
Out of a dream, out of the sky
Recalling a transition from a dream or fantasy to reality
Into my heart, into my life
Highlighting the profound impact on the speaker's heart and life
And you were just a face in the crowd
Reiterating the theme of being a face in the crowd
You were just a face in the crowd
Affirming the sense of anonymity in a public setting
Out in the street, walking around
Engaging in routine activities while unnoticed
A face in the crowd
Reemphasizing the concept of being a face in the crowd
A face in the crowd a face in the crowd
Repetition for emphasis: the individual remains unnoticed
A face in the crowd
Reiterating the idea of being an anonymous figure in a group
