Teardrop Windows

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Teardrop windows crying in the sky, he’s all alone and wondering why

Ivory white, but feeling kinda blue,

Cause there’s no one there to share the view

There’s too many vacant seats, he’s been feeling all sore and teal

And the sun sets over the sounds, and he’s going to sleep

Built in balls, stands the tallest on the course

He was once the city’s only toast

In all postcards was positioned as a star

He was looked up to and fonded by

But in 1962, the needle made its big debut

And everybody forgot what it outgrew

He wonders where the workers are, who once filled every floor

The elevators operate, but don’t much anymore, anymore, anymore

Teardrop windows crying in the sky, how he years have quickly passed him by

Cleaning why gives the deeṗest baby blue, he is lonely just like me and you

Cause there’s too many vacant seats,

He’s been feeling all sore and teal

When the sun sets over the sounds, he just goes to sleep

There’s too many vacant seats,

He’s been feeling all sore and teal

When the maids turn off the lights, he just goes to sleep
