Nobody's Home He turns the key in the door and says, "Hello?' There's no answer as before Nobody's home. Hurries to the bedroom that they share To change his clothes. He smiles to himself, satisfied That she'll never know. They haven't taken the time To see what's right before their eyes. That all the love has died, Slowly slipped away like the tide. Now nobody's home. She pulls the car into the drive And waits for a moment. The evening plays out in her mind And she breathes out a sigh. Asleep on the sofa he lies To the TV glow. The secrets are hidden in her yes And he'll never know.

about

There are songs that fall into your lap. This is NOT one of those songs.

The first demo I sent to my good friend, Bob Cross, who suggested a slower tempo and he was right.
Here's the results of eleven months, on and off, of this song.
The second version of this song has keyboard and a percussion track.
Enjoy.

Nobody's Home

He turns the key in the door
and says, "Hello?'
There's no answer as before
Nobody's home.

Hurries to the bedroom that they share
To change his clothes.
He smiles to himself, satisfied
That she'll never know.

They haven't taken the time
To see what's right before their eyes.
That all the love has died,
Slowly slipped away like the tide.
Now nobody's home.

She pulls the car into the drive
And waits for a moment.
The evening plays out in her mind
And she breathes out a sigh.

Asleep on the sofa he lies
To the TV glow.
The secrets are hidden in her eyes
And he'll never know.
