I sit and watch you from my window giving yourself away You ve been workin hard all day I see the ground catch at your feet I see the sweet signs of defeat like you re beaten but you feel no pain
sweet lady (x3)
And then you turn to me instinctively checking that you're alone
Then like a reflex from my mind I fall away into the background Like a shadow on the wall And leave you with your peace of mind
I watch from my window up high All alone in this room So many people go the same way I think its time that I changed my view Just like a king in his lonely kingdom Like a rule of who has no rules See I've got nothing left to lose I think it's time I changed my view
Why did you choose my way? Why did you come down this lonely street? Was it to meet me? Was it to tango? Well the roots, they sound so sweet Swetter than gold, Sweeter than fate Sweeter than honey Won't power the money Walking alone this lonely street Someone I'd like to meet Someone I'd like to know As a candid soul Oh so spiritual the sound and down like a waterfall Look at the way, never the same, changing my view, my view everyday
I watch from my window up high All alone in this room So many people go the same way I think its time that I changed my view Just like a king in his lonely kingdom Like a rule of who has no rules See I've got nothing left to lose I think it's time I changed my view (x4)
