When There's No One Around

This is a song that nobody knows

I couldn't begin to describe how it goes

But it makes me cry or laugh right out loud

It's a song that I sing when there's no one around

This is the man that nobody sees

He wears my old clothes and he looks just like me

Just one of the boys who gets lost in the crowd

He's the man that I am when there's no one around

It's four in the morning

I'm lyin' in bed

A tape of my failures

Playin' inside my head

It's heartache and hard knocks

And things I don't know

I listen and I wonder

Where will it go

This is a glimpse of a child that's within

He's so immature but he's still my best friend

If he could learn how to fly he'd never touch down

He's the kid that I am when there's no one around

This is the dance I do every day

I let my feet go and get carried away

I let my soul lead and follow the sound

It's the dance that I do when there's no one around

It's four in the morning

I'm lyin' in bed

A tape of my failures

Playin' inside my head

It's heartache and hard knocks

And things I don't know

I listen and I wonder

Where will it go

This is a song that nobody knows

I still can't begin to describe how it goes

But it makes me cry or laugh right out loud

It's a song that I sign when there's no one around

It's a song that I sign when there's no one around
