Hours By The Window Lyrics - Level 42

day and night 

by the window 

of my mind 

there you are 

in the courtyard 

one last time 

the singing of a famous song I've never heard before 

a man without a shadow slowly walking past my door 

my mind projects a face soon to be free of misery 

the chiming of some distant bell that echoes in my heart 

a dance upon the flagstones to the music of the stars 

a mother's name that lingers on a soothing summer's breeze

all alone I said no prayers today 

I couldn't kneel to please the god that failed you 

now you're gone I'll sit and spend each day 

hours by the window 

morning comes 

to my rescue 

once again 

whispers in the corridor and footsteps in the hall 

my only point of reference now the sunlight on the wall 

it draws me to the window where my dreams are memories 

a step beyond the line where sunken eyes avert their gaze 

an endless tract of time reveals a thousand silent ways 

all searching for an answer to life's deepest mysteries 

on the ocean of pure time I sail away 

I go and these four walls will not contain me 

maybe there I'll see your face again 

hours by the window 

all alone I said no prayers today 

I couldn't kneel to please the god that failed you 

what I'd give to see your face again 

hours by the window
