"When I Wasn't Watching (Acoustic)" lyrics - MANDY MOORE
Where was I when this was goin' down?
Maybe sleepin' in? Maybe outta town?
Spent a whole life waitin' patiently
Convinced it all would come to me
My favorite version of me disappeared
Through longer days and shorter years
Where was I when this was goin' down?
Assumed the world would come around
[Chorus:]
To who we are
Nobody's lookin'
Nobody's lookin'
What I became
When I wasn't watchin'
When I wasn't watchin'
A little lost, a little rough
I asked myself, "Have you had enough?"
How do I start to retrace the steps
I haven't even taken yet?
The fear of what I'm facin' in the mirror
Stops me cold and leaves me here
A little lost, a little rough
The lack of answers all add up
[Chorus:]
To who we are
When nobody's lookin'
Nobody's lookin'
What I became
When I wasn't watchin'
When I wasn't watchin'
[Instrumental bridge]
[Chorus:]
Who we are
When nobody's lookin'
Nobody's lookin'
What I became
When I wasn't watchin'
When I wasn't watchin'
When I wasn't watchin'
When I wasn't watchin'
