When Theres No One Around - Lyrics by Garth Brooks


Lyrics
This is a song that nobody knows
\r
I couldn't begin to describe how it goes
\r
But it makes me cry or laugh right out loud
\r
It's a song that I sing when there's no one around
\r

\r
This is the man that nobody sees
\r
He wears my old clothes and he looks just like me
\r
Just one of the boys who gets lost in the crowd
\r
He's the man that I am when there's no one around
\r

\r
It's four in the morning
\r
I'm lyin' in bed
\r
A tape of my failures
\r
Playin' inside my head
\r
It's heartaches and hard knocks
\r
And things I don't know
\r
I listen and I wonder
\r
Where will it go
\r

\r
This is a glimpse of the child that's within
\r
He's so immature but he's still my best friend
\r
If he could learn how to fly he'd never touch down
\r
He's the kid that I am when there's no one around
\r

\r
This is the dance I do every day
\r
I let my feet go and get carried away
\r
I let my soul lead and follow the sound
\r
It's the dance that I do when there's no one around
\r

\r
It's four in the morning
\r
I'm lyin' in bed
\r
A tape of my failures
\r
Playin' inside my head
\r
It's heartaches and hard knocks
\r
And things I don't know
\r
I listen and I wonder
\r
Where will it go
\r

\r
This is a song that nobody knows
\r
I still can't begin to describe how it goes
\r
But it makes me cry or laugh right out loud
\r
It's a song that I sing when there's no one around
\r
It's a song that I sing when there's no one around
\r
\r
