A broken promise I kept too long
|
A greasy shade and a curtain drawn
|
A broken glass and a heart gone wrong
|
That's my window on the world.
|
|
A cup of coffee and a shaky hand
|
Waking up in a foreign land
|
Trying to act like I got something planned
|
That's my window on the world.
|
|
That's my window on the world
|
Could you stand a little closer girl
|
Don't let mamma cut those curls.
|
That's my window on the world.

|
In broad day light that circus went
|
Pulled up stakes I don't know where it went
|
Closed dark room with a busted vent.
|
That's my window on the world.
|
|
I think about you when I'm counting sheep.
|
I think about you then I can't sleep
|
I think the ocean is just so deep
|
That's my window on the world.
|
|
That's my window on the world
|
Could you stand a little closer girl
|
The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earl
|
That's my window on the world.

|
|
Down on Indiana Avenue
|
Wes and Jimmy man they played the blues.
|
I guess they were only passin' through
|
That's my window on the world.
|
|
That's my window on the world
|
Could you stand a little closer girl
|
Don't let mamma cut those curls.
|
That's my window on the world.
|
|
That's my window on the world
|
Could you stand a little closer girl
|
The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earl
|
That's my window on the world.
