From My Window - Lindisfarne

I have waited in my room, in the silence of a tune

And arranged it as it was the day she came

Lit the candle, made a bed, … the pillow for a head

And imagined every thing was just the same

But looking out from my window at the rain

I can see that she won’t come back again

So I will wait 'til I know what to do

And I will go out and find someone new

I have waited all night long, I have played her favourite songs

I have listen for her footsteps, just the same

And I knew that I was blind, for in the darkness of my mind

It was no surprise to … she never came

Now she’s left me on my own, I must learn to live alone

And pull together what she’s left me of my pride

I can see this is the end, it’s no good to pretend

I must go for someone else to take my side

But looking out from my window at the rain

I can see that she won’t come back again

So I will wait 'til I know what to do

And I will go out and find someone new
