Tanita Tikaram
World Outside Your Window (single version)
[Verse 1]
Well, everyone has said
That I might go
'Cause my red suitcase and my Ray-Bans
Weren't quite so
I'd bear the heavy wind and rain that falls
I'll never come back again
'Cause you know how I laugh
When winter shows her hand
[Verse 2]
Well, that picture frame
Is the saddest thing you'll see
But it bought me time
And a place that love could be
And since I'm going now, please rearrange
'Cause I'd like to think that
Things have changed
I don't believe you'll be open anymore
[Chorus]
So, tell me if you want to see
A world outside your window
A world outside your window isn't free
Oh, and tell me if you want to catch
That feeling of redemption
That feeling of redemption don't do much for me
[Verse 3]
Now what can you say?
I'm hiding in the belfry
How can you say
I wanna catch time?
How can you say
You know anything about me?
Because I knew about you
That I won't care about you?
[Verse 4]
Now, everyone has come to see
But some things have to die
Flowers out for this graphic haunt
But they all pass me by
But the age is not a funny game
It don't give such a buzz
And when I winced with ignorance
I had to kiss this dust
[Chorus]
So, tell me if you want to see
A world outside your window
A world outside your window isn't free
Oh, and tell me if you want to catch
That feeling of redemption
That feeling of redemption don't do much for me
