Foreign Window

[00:24.56] I saw you from a foreign window
[00:28.90]
[00:30.97] Bearing down the sufferin' road
[00:35.52]
[00:38.47] You were carryin' your burden
[00:43.23]
[00:45.83] To the palace of the lord
[00:49.50] To the palace of the lord
[00:54.02]
[01:01.63] I spied you from a foreign window
[01:05.94]
[01:08.60] When the lilacs were in bloom
[01:13.03]
[01:15.62] And the sun shone through your window pane
[01:20.59]
[01:23.03] To the place you kept your books
[01:27.40]
[01:30.44] You were reading on your sofa
[01:35.29]
[01:37.84] You were singin' every prayer
[01:42.60]
[01:45.31] That the masters had instilled in you
[01:51.96] Since lord byron loved despair
[01:56.48] In the palace of the lord
[02:01.12]
[02:07.76] And if you get it right (this time)
[02:12.50] You don't have to come back again
[02:16.63]
[02:20.17] And if you get it right this time
[02:26.45] There's no need to explain (this time)
[02:41.48] I saw you from a foreign window
[02:48.84] Bearing down the sufferin' road
[02:53.90]
[02:57.22] You were carryin' your burden
[03:01.62]
[03:03.72] You were singing about rimbaud
[03:07.82]
[03:10.38] I was going down to geneva
[03:16.10]
[03:18.77] When the kingdom had been found
[03:23.62]
[03:27.14] I was giving you protection
[03:33.66] From the loneliness of the crowd
[03:37.35] In the palace of the lord
[03:42.05]
[03:48.54] They were giving you religion
[03:53.45]
[03:56.00] Breaking bread and drinking wine
[04:00.94]
[04:03.56] And you laid out on the green hills
[04:08.59]
[04:10.91] Just like when you were a child
[04:15.07]
[04:17.47] I saw you from a foreign window
[04:23.43]
[04:25.83] You were trying to find your way back home
[04:30.77]
[04:33.18] You were carrying your defects
[04:39.51] Sleeping on a pallet on the floor
[04:44.24] In the palace of the lord
[04:48.76]
[04:52.53] In the palace of the lord
[04:59.91] In the palace of the lord
[05:02.49]
