At My Window

By townes van zandt



At my window

Watching the sun go

Hoping the stars know

It's time to shine

Daydreams

Aloft on dark wings

Soft as the sun streams

At days decline





Living is laughing

Dying says nothing at all

Baby and i are laying here

Watching the evening fall





Time flows

Through brave beginnings

And she leaves her endings

Beneath our feet

Walk lightly

Upon their faces

Leave gentle traces

Upon their sleep





Living is dancing

Dying does nothing at all

Baby and i are laying here

Wathing the evening fall





Three dimes

Hard luck and good times

Fast lines and low rhymes

Ain't much to say

Feel fine

Feel low and lazy

Feel grey and hazy

Feel far away





Living is sighing

Dying ain't flying so high

Baby and i are lying here

Watching the day go by
