Nobody Really Knows Lyrics


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.
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.

George Ivan Morrison (generally known as Van Morrison) (born 31 August 1945) is a Grammy Award-winning artist from Belfast, Northern Ireland. He's a singer, songwriter, author, poet, and multi-instrumentalist, who has been a professional musician since 1958. He plays a variety of instruments, including the guitar, harmonica, keyboards, drums, and saxophone. Featuring his characteristic growl - a unique mix of folk, blues, Irish, scat, and Celtic influences - Morrison is widely considered one of the most unusual and influential vocalists in the history of rock and roll.

Known as "Van the Man" by his fans, Morrison first rose to prominence as the lead singer of the Northern Irish band Them, writing their 1964 hit "Gloria". A few years later, Morrison left the band for a successful solo career, starting with the album Astral Weeks.

Morrison has pursued an idiosyncratic musical path. Much of his music is tightly structured around the conventions of American soul and R&B, such as the popular singles "Brown Eyed Girl", "Moondance", "Domino", and "Wild Night". An equal part of his catalogue consists of lengthy, loosely connected, spiritually inspired musical journeys that show the influence of Celtic tradition, jazz, and stream-of-consciousness narrative, such as his classic album Astral Weeks and lesser known works such as Veedon Fleece and Common One. The two strains together are sometimes referred to as "Celtic Soul," and Morrison rejects the characterization of his genre of music as Rock, citing Elvis Presley as a non-influence.

He continues to perform regularly, and achieved his highest U.S. chart position (number ten on the Billboard 200) with his latest album, Keep It Simple.
