Lyrics: Window on the World
Album: License To Chill
Artist: Jimmy Buffett
 

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
Trying to act like I got something planned
That’s my window on the world

That’s my window on the world
Could you stand a little closer girl?
Don’t let Mama 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
A closed dark room with a busted vent
That’s my window on the world

I think about you and I’m countin 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 you stand a little closer girl?
The Queen of Sheeba meets the Duke of Earl
That’s my window on the world

Down on Indiana Avenue
Where some Jimmy men, they play the blues
I guess they were only passin through
That’s my window on the world

That’s my window on the world
Could you stand a little closer girl?
Don’t let Mama cut those curls
That’s my window on the world
