Nobody Really Knows Lyrics - Van Morrison

We stood outside the city, 

six feet in the snow, 

and everyone was stranded 

and I stopped to say, "hello". 

Everybody kept on walkin' 

who didn't have no place to go. 

Everybody kept on walkin' 

that had no place to go, 

and everybody's talkin' 

but nobody really knows, 

nobody really knows.

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

And say, I think you'll stay awhile, 

you know just where it's at. 

Pull up a chair and 

stay awhile, 

we'll give ya' tit for tat. 

I said, "You know something, 

I'm not sure I really like that." 

I said, "You know something, 

I believe I'll grab my coat and hat." 

I got outside, 

down in the street below, and everybody started walkin' 

that didn't have no place to go, 

and everybody's talkin' 

but nobody, nobody really know, no, 

nobody really know. 

And say you think "you're really good for us. 

We know you are and it's true, 

ain't nobody can do more for you 

than we can do. 

We can give ya' money, 

watch you spend it all the time, 

and make sure 

you don't 

ride on down the line." 

I said, "I believe I won't 

'cause I ain't got no place to go." 

I'm just stranded and I'm walkin', 

and I don't have no place to go, 

and everybody's talkin' 

but nobody, nobody really know, 

nobody really know. 

And they say, "Sing the song one more time 

'cause I really believe I know what it means, 

I was with you last night 

when you wrote it in your dreams." 

I said, "Is that right? 

How 

can you be so complete? 

Y', you can't stop talkin' 

every time you move your feet." 

You know that we're all stranded, 

we ain't got no place to go. 

We are stranded here 

in the city in the snow, 

and everybody's talkin' 

but nobody really knows, 

nobody really know. 

Everybody's talkin', 

everybody's talkin', 

everybody's talkin', 

and everybody's talkin' but 

nobody really know. 

Everybody's talkin' but 

nobody, nobody really know, 

they just pretend they know. 

Nobody really know.
