Window On The World

a broken promise i kept too long a greasy shade and a curtain drawn a broken gla*s and a heart gone wrong that's my window on the world a cup of coffee in a shaky hand wakin' up in a foreign land tryin' to act like i got somethin' planned that's my window on the world CHORUS ONE: that's my window on the world could you stand a little closer, girl don't let mama cut those curfs that's my window on the world in broad daylight that circus tent pulled up stakes i don't know where it went a close dark room with a busted vent that's my window on the world i think about you when i'm countin' sheep i think about you, then i can't sleep I think that ocean is just so deep that's my window on the world CHORUS tWO: that's my window on the world could you stand a little closer, girl The queen of Sheba meets the duke of earle that's my window on the world down on indiana avenue wes and jimmy, man they played the blues i guess they were only pa*sin' through that's my window on the world CHORUS ONE: that's my window on the world could you stand a little closer, girl don't let mama cut those curfs that's my window on the world CHORUS tWO: that's my window on the world could you stand a little closer, girl The queen of Sheba meets the duke of earle that's my window on the world
