NOBODY

©1996 Walter Crockett
From Valerie & Walter Crockett's Unbutton Your Heart on the Daring label.

Nobody saw you kiss him
By the garden wall last night
And nobody heard you moan his name
In the early morning light
   You met at an out-of-the-way hotel
   Where nobody happens to go
   If anyone's seen you together
   Nobody's saying so
So if someone should claim that you've
Fallen in love with him
Nobody would believe
Ain't that just my luck, to be nobody
Oh ain't that just my luck, to be nobody

Nobody's seen you crying
Cause you're feeling so confused
And nobody knows that you're dying to go
But you've got so much to lose
   Everyone thinks you still love me
   But nobody knows the truth
   Someone's got to make a decision
   And nobody can help you
Cause when you get back from your
Cheating with somebody
Nobody won't be home
Ain't that just my luck, to be nobody

BRIDGE:
And if anyone ever should ask you
Who it was taught you to love
Tell 'em it was nobody special
That'll be close enough

He said nobody has to suffer
Nobody has to know
But I say somebody's going to break the
Heart of the carefree girl
That I love so
   Then when he's gone and you're crying alone
   Nobody will cry for you
Ain't that just my luck, to be nobody
Oh ain't that just my luck, to be nobody
Oh ain't that just my luck, to be nobody
