Lyrics
Watching
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.
Watching my watch tick the time away
Watching through the window the skies turning grey
My eyes get so lonesome at times I can't see these long lonely walls keep watching me
Watching your pillow unused since you'd left
Makes the pain sharpen that runs through my chest
Watching my hands tremble just thinking of you
Then my mind starts to wonderin' oh what will I do
Watching the shadows of evening come down then soon the darkness covers the mound
Watch a dim light bulb out in the hall flicker its light through a crack in my wall
Watching your pillow...
