sidewalk in Galway (rewrite 4)


I am playing on a sidewalk in Galway
I am a million miles from home
there is no one paying attention
me and my songs are all unknown
but I keep on playing
it's what I was born to do
and if no one listens
I'll be singing to you


there are people here in Galway
but they don't ever slow down
no coins in my guitar case
I'm just trying to stand my ground
they weren't here when I started
they won't be here when I'm through
and if no one listens
I'll be singing to you


I remember you from Dublin
I remember your sweet smile
I remember our sweet loving
I guess it's been a long, long while
I don't need no audience
you alone will do
and if no one listens
I'll be singing to you
I'll be singing to you
