Looking Out The Window.
Long time coming, it's overdue.
My baby just left town, I've got to start anew.
Walkin' round this old house, thinking about yesterday.
The silence is deafening since she went away.
I'm looking out the window, just staring at the rain.
I'm stifled by stagnation, I've got to catch a leavin' train.
I'm looking out the window, for you... to take me home.
I know my destiny is a merry-go-round.
More shallow people, in another shady town.
I can feel my love come bustin' loose.
There is a danger
in everything I chose.
I'm looking out the window,
just staring at the rain.
I'm judged by persistence, I'm not the one to blame.
I'm looking out the window,
for you... to take me home.
It's just another case,
of substance over style.
I get in my car,
and I drive for a little while.
I long for perspective
that another day will bring.
And I'll ride out the waves
and search for the brass ring.
I'm looking out the window, just staring at the rain.
I'm stifled by stagnation,
I've got to catch a leavin' train.
I'm looking out the window,
for you... to take me home.
Next song: Coming Apart At The Seams.
