A Face In The Crowd Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Nick the Bastard 

Cover art for A Face In The Crowd lyrics by Tom Petty

I take it to be about how random people can meet up. I guess it might be an unrequited kind of thing, based on the sound of the song. Maybe the guy saw somebody somewhere who really stodd out to him, and then he couldn't get her out of his mind, even though he never saw her again or never talked to her. I don't know, just a guess.
