Nobody Knows Lyrics by J. J. Cale

Nobody Knows Lyrics

    Words that we say could all be lies someday
    Scattered to the wind, i don't know
    Things that we trust could crumble into dust
    No one can really say it ain't so
    When you go over a mountain
    When you're looking down the road
    When you think you're going backwards
    It's all in vain, it seems insane
    When you ask, nobody knows
    If our actions seem in doubt
    By the way we move about
    Seems like we're always on the run
    Our mark is just a scratch
    Like holding up a match
    And trying to see the burn against the sun
    When we're going over a mountain
    When we're looking down the road
    If you think you're going backwards
    It's all in vain, it seems insane
    When you ask, nobody knows
    When all our days are gone
    You can catch us with a song
    Something that seemed almost right
    We've known love and joy
    Eternity's been our toy
    Something to play with in the night
    When we're going over a mountain
    When we're looking down the road
    If you think you're going backwards
    It's all in vain, it seems insane
    When you ask, nobody knows
    When i go over my mountain
    When i'm looking down the road
    If i think i'm going backwards
    It's all in vain, it seems insane
    When i ask, nobody knows
