Where Nobody Was by Evelyn Norris Tuesday, October 07, 2003 Share Print Save Become a Fan Searching for a quiet place
I wanted a place Where nobody was, Nobody there but me. So I found a table And so was able To simply sit and be. But then I found That without much sound People all too near, Tho' quietly they spoke With voices that broke Of someone very dear. And I wondered if ever, Though I thought hardly ever Did anyone speak of me In joyful tones With love alone And I wondered how it would be. But I needed a moment alone To find the inner core of me Something inside, Opened up wide And still they could not see. Then I knew why And I could not cry For I learned a new thing About me The quiet place I sought Had already been bought And dwelled inside of me.
