A House With No Curtains

Alan Jackson · Original Album Classics [2011]

(Jim McBride - Alan Jackson)



We still were our rings

We still say I love you

We both play the part, oh, so well

But everyone knows

It's just a sad show

And we're only foolin' ourselves.



It's like living in a house with no curtains

The whole world can see what's inside

You can turn out the lights in a house with no curtains

But heartache has nowhere to hide.



--- Instrumental ---



We could pack up

And leave in different directions

If we just had somewhere to go

We just keep on pretending

Afraid of the ending

Admitting what everyone knows.



It's like living in a house with no curtains

The whole world can see what's inside

You can turn out the lights in a house with no curtains

But heartache has nowhere to hide.



You can turn out the lights in a house with no curtains

But heartache has nowhere to hide...
