Window on the World Lyrics

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 in a shaky hand
Waking up in a foreign land
Tryin' to act like I got something planned
That's my window on the world.

That's my window on the world
Could ya stand a little closer girl?
Don't let mamma cut those curls.
That's my window on the world.

In broad daylight that circus tent
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 ya 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 passing through
That's my window on the world.

That's my window on the world
Could ya 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 ya stand a little closer girl?
The Queen of Sheba meets the Duke of Earl
That's my window on the world.
