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
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
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
Well everyone was hoping
you would stay awhile
Tell us 'bout
that great land
in the south
Then you see that man
Now ain't he under offer
Well I tell you child
you go wash out
your mouth
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
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
but I won't care
about you
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
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
