Day 2 a song that reminds me of me

All I want, is to just have fun, live my life like a son of a gun

But also, I often don’t recognize the man in the mirror, but he does sport all my clothes, and he IS pretty pimping.

Relatable. Thanks for the share, never heard this one!
 
Day 2: A song that reminds you of yourself

This is an obscure Garth Brooks song. One so obscure I can't find the original on the web. This is a cover. Well, it is a trucker singing with the song. So I am putting the lyrics up. It his pretty close most days, and today more than most.


"When There's No One Around"

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
I'm lying in bed
A tape of my failures
Playing 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
I'm lying in bed
A tape of my failures
Playing 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

I rarely relate to a song, probably because I have to listen about twenty times to memorize the lyrics, and even then I flub it up when I sing them back. Karaoke is great because the lyrics are right there on the screen.

The melody and beat hook me first. I love minor chords. I love an upbeat tempo generally... but if I am sad I love a slow song too.

This one is pretty great. Good beat, relatable message. Love me some Gaga. Gonna go with this for now.

"My song" has yet to be written... 😉
