“When I Wasn’t Watching” is a song by American singer-songwriter and actress Mandy Moore, released as the first single from Silver Landings, her seventh studio album.
The song is a chilled-out pop ballad with a rocking edge and her first original song in over a decade.
[Verse 1]
Where was I when this was goin' down?
Maybe sleepin' in, maybe outta town?
I spent my whole life waiting patiently
Convinced it all would come to me
My favorite version of me disappeared
Through longer days and shorter years
So where was I when this was going down?
Assumed the world would come around
[Chorus]
To who we are
When nobody's lookin'
When nobody's lookin'
What I became
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
[Verse 2]
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 facing 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'
When nobody's lookin
What I became
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
[Chorus]
Who we are
When nobody's lookin'
When nobody's lookin
What I became
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching

It all has to start with me… I think everyone’s had the experience of feeling lost and not quite understanding...
