Townes Van Zandt
At My Window
[Verse 1]
At my window watching the sun go
Hoping the stars know it's time to shine
Daydreams aloft on dark wings
Soft as the sun streams at day's decline

[Chorus]
Living is laughing
Dying says nothing at all
Babe and I are lying here
Watching the evening fall

[Verse 2]
Well, time flows through brave beginnings
And she leaves her endings beneath our feet
Walk lightly upon their faces
Leave gentle traces upon their sleep

[Chorus 2]
Ah living is dancing
Dying does nothing at all
Babe and I lying here
Watching the evening fall

[Verse 3]
Three dimes, hard luck, and good times
Fast lines and low rhymes ain't much to say
Feel fine, feel low and lazy
Feel gray and hazy, feel far away
[Chorus 3]
Ah living is sighing
Dying ain't flying so high
Babe and I lying here
Watching the day go by
