Lyrics

[Verse 1]
A room with a window facing West
Towards the sea
You, with your hands across your chest
Facing me
[Verse 2]
Sing me a song
Your voice is like silver
And I don't think that
I can do this anymore
[Verse 3]
I'll take the high road
That he walked
Once before
You sit and watch me as I come
Through the door
[Verse 4]
Oh but, sing me a song
Your voice is like silver
And I don't think that
I can do this anymore
[Verse 5]
Ooh (Ooh, ooh)
[Verse 6]
Oh, sing me a song
Your voice is like silver
And I don't think that
I can do this anymore
[Verse 7]
Show me the path
Down to the shoreline
'Cause I don't know if
I can do this anymore, oh
[Verse 8]
A room with a window facing West
