"Windows And Walls"

"Windows And Walls"


Up every morning
Long before day
Cooking her breakfast alone
She quietly dresses
And pulls up the shades
And sits in the chair by the phone.

But nobody ever comes by anymore
Nobody ever calls
Most days she sits and just stares
At the windows and walls
Windows and walls.

Children all married
Husband's passed on
Nothing but time on her hands
Most of her mornings
Are spent in her dreams
Or making her sad little plans.

Maybe she'll go to the corner today
And pick up the new McCalls
If just to escape for an hour
From her windows and walls
Windows and walls.

The clock on the mantel
Chiming the hours
Must be the loneliest sound
She washes her dishes
and waters her flowers
And afterwards has to sit down.

Sometimes she still can remember a child
Playing with china dolls...
Now all that she's left
Are these memories and windows and walls
Windows and walls (day after day)
Windows and walls.

"Wishing On The Moon"

"Wishing On The Moon"


How many eyes will you search in sorrow
Seeking to borrow some sight of your own
How many lies will you have to suffer
Until you discover there's nobody home
How many roads will you have to wander
How many dead end streets
How many dreams will you finally squander
Dodging your own defeats.

You're wishing on the moon tonight
There's not a lucky star in sight
Just wishing on the moon tonight.

How many doors will you have to open
Desperately hoping each one's the last
How many more will you close behind you
Bitter and blind to the shadows you cast
How many fools will you have to follow
How many wayward winds
How many sins will you have to swallow
Until the truth sinks in
(That you've been)

Wishing on the moon tonight
There's not a lucky star in sight
Wishing on the moon tonight
You're wishing on the moon.

How many eyes will you search in sorrow
Seeking to borrow some sight of your own
How many lies will you have to suffer
Until you discover there's nobody home
How many roads will you have to wander
How many dead end streets
How many dreams will you finally squander
Dodging your own defeats.

You're wishing on the moon tonight
There's not a lucky star in sight
Just wishing on the moon tonight.

You're wishing on the moon tonight
There's not a lucky star in sight
Just wishing on the moon tonight.

Wishing on the moon
You're just, just, just wishing

"Wysteria"

"Wysteria"


Wysteria, did you change your face again
Those of us who loved you when
Can't even find you.

Wysteria, did you lose another man
Did you make him understand
That he can't touch you.

Wysteria, did he take you to the fair?
Were the folks that you met there
The same that we met?
Wysteria, did he teach you how to dance
Did he bring you paper fans
to hide your secret?

Was he just like all the rest
When he got to the sad part
Did he stay a bit too long
To save his heart.

Wysteria, are your lips still lily white
Do they still bloom just
At night and die at sunrise?
