I need a room with a view
|
An armchair by the window
|
a cup of coffee and a cigarette or two
|
Watch the sky turn from hazy gray to black
|
Watch my neighbours go to work
|
and look exhausted and burned out when they get back
|
Thinking about you
|
Thank God for this beautiful view
|
|
I recall you took me swimming
|
the sea was dark and cold
|
You'd been there many times before
|
with many different girls, I'd been told
|
But what's a man without a past
|
We love him for his lies
|
and then we try to break him down to make it last
|
'til they come true
|
Thank God for this beautiful view
|
|
Beautiful view
|
You, you, you...
|
I still love you
|
|
The dark is falling and the city fills with lights
|
Cars like shining pearls on strings
|
moving through the emptiness of night
|
The wine is running to my head
|
I'm spellbound by the moment
|
can't get up, can't find the strength to go to bed
|
Without you
|
Thank God for this beautiful view
|
|
Beautiful view
|
You, you, you...
|
I still love you
|
|
I've been blind too blind to tell false from true
|
I've been so busy running
|
never stopped to think where I was running to
|
But I've learned my lesson from the tears I've had to cry Sometimes it helps to
|
take your time
|
to sit alone and watch the world go by
|
Cause every day it's new
|
Thank God for this beautiful view
|
Every day it's new
|
Thank God for this beautiful view
|
Thank God for this beautiful view
|
