Window Up Above

Loretta Lynn · Home [1975]

(George Jones)



I've been living a new way of life that I love so

But I can see the clouds are gathering

And the storm will wreck our home.



For last night she hugged you tightly

And you didn't even shove

This is true for I've been watching

From the window up above.



You must have thought that I was sleeping

Oh Lord, I wish that I had been

But it's best to get to know you

And the way your heart can sin.



I thought we belonged together

nd our hearts fit like a glove

But I was wrong for I've been watching

From the window up above,



--- Instrumental ---



From my eyes the teardrops started

As I listened on and on

Heard you whisper to her softly

That our marriage was all wrong.



But I hope she makes you happy

and you'll never lose her love

I lost mine while I was watching

From the window up above.



How I wished I could be dreaming

Wake up to the love that's true

But I can't for I was watching

From the window up above...
