Amy Grant - Nobody Home lyrics



Written by Glen Ballard & Siedah Garrett

Main street U.S.A boarded up and dry
Knowing what once was here just makes me want to cry
Used to be the favorite place, yeah
Now what remains are memories even time cannot erase

Old man Johnson's store, where we grew up too fast
All that remains today are echoes from the past
Used to be a booming town, yeah
Now all that's left is either broken up or broken down

Chorus:
Singing, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh
Where we used to belong
There ain't nobody home
Said, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh
You can knock all you want
But, ain't nobody home

Packed up, moved away, running from the past
Leaving behind the dusty dreams and broken glass
Used to be a busy town, yeah
Now everybody passes through, but they don't stick around

(Repeat Chorus)

Oh, was a newsstand on the corner
Right next to the barber shop
And down the street there
That's where all the kids would stop
And they would tease the neighbor's bulldog
And laugh and run away
And now there's no one left
Who knows the truth in what you say

Now everybody passes through, but they don't stick around

(Repeat Chorus)
Oh, oh, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh
Where we used to belong
There ain't nobody home
Talk all you want
But, ain't nobody home
Knock all you want
But, ain't nobody home
