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
  Im lyin' in bed
  A tape of my failures
  Playin' inside my head
  It's heartaches and hard knocks
  And things I don't know
  I listen and I wonder
  Where will it go
    This is a glimpse of the 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
  Im lyin' in bed
  A tape of my failures
  Playin' inside my head
  It's heartaches 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 sing when there's no one around
  It's a song that I sing when there's no one around
