Nobody Really Knows — текст песни (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.

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.
