Shawn Colvin - Window To The World lyrics

Neon flickers with a pale glow And all the shadows that come and go Sometimes I can hear them laugh and cry In my lonely room with a view I can't sleep and so I think of you And watch the world as it pa**es by I can't close my eyes I can't close my eyes [Chorus:] This is my window to the world All of the lonely boys and girls Are a reflection in my eyes Of me and you This is my window to it all I see the heroes rise and fall This is my window to the world And I can see As the night turns into day Old ladies shuffle by and wave And the kids sell d** to cars that slowly cruise Young lovers walk across my street Oblivious to the refugees And the lonely lost baby, that's me and you I can't close my eyes I can't close my eyes [Chorus]
