Window On The World

A broken promise I kept too long
A greasy shade and a curtain drawn
A broken glass and a heart gone wrong
Thats 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
Thats my window on the world

Thats my window on the world
Could you stand a little closer, girl
Dont let Mama cut those curls
Thats my window on the world

In broad daylight that circus tent
Pulled up stakes, I dont know where it went
A close dark room with a busted vent
Thats my window on the world

I think about you when Im countin sheep
I think about you then I cant sleep
I think the ocean is just so deep
Thats my window on the world

Thats my window on the world
Could you stand a little closer, girl
The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earle
Thats my window on the world

Down on Indiana Avenue
Wes and Jimmy, man they played the Blues
I guess they were only passin through
Thats my window on the world

Thats my window on the world
Could you stand a little closer, girl
Dont let Mama cut those curls
Thats my window on the world

Thats my window on the world
Could you stand a little closer, girl
The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earle
Thats my window on the world
