Fat Freddy’s Drop - This Room lyrics
[Fat Freddy’s Drop - This Room lyrics]
I sit and watch you from my window, Lady
Giving yourself away
You've been working hard all day
I see the ground catch at your feet
I see the sweet signs of defeat
Like you're beaten but you feel no pain
And then you turn to me instinctively
Checking if you're alone
Like a reflex from my guilty mind
I fall away into the background
Like a shadow on the wall
To leave you with your peace of mind
I watch from my window up high
All alone in this room
So many people go the same way
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom
A ruler who had no rules
Ooh, I got nothing left to lose
I think it’s time that I changed my views
Why did you choose my way?
Why did you come down this lonely street?
Was it to meet me? Was it to tango?
Well the roots they sound so sweet
Sweeter than gold sweeter than fame
Sweeter than honey more power than money
Walking along this lonely street
Someone I'd like to meet
Someone I'd like to know as a kindred soul
Oh so spiritual
The sound ran down like waterfalls
Running away, never the same
Changing my view of you everyday
I watch from my window up high
All alone in this room
So many people go the same way
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom
A ruler who had no rules
Ooh, I got nothing left to lose
I think it’s time that I changed my views
I think it’s time that I changed my views
I think it’s time that I changed my views
I think it’s time that I changed my views
Giving yourself away
You've been working hard all day
I see the ground catch at your feet
I see the sweet signs of defeat
Like you're beaten but you feel no pain
And then you turn to me instinctively
Checking if you're alone
Like a reflex from my guilty mind
I fall away into the background
Like a shadow on the wall
To leave you with your peace of mind
I watch from my window up high
All alone in this room
So many people go the same way
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom
A ruler who had no rules
Ooh, I got nothing left to lose
I think it’s time that I changed my views
Why did you choose my way?
Why did you come down this lonely street?
Was it to meet me? Was it to tango?
Well the roots they sound so sweet
Sweeter than gold sweeter than fame
Sweeter than honey more power than money
Walking along this lonely street
Someone I'd like to meet
Someone I'd like to know as a kindred soul
Oh so spiritual
The sound ran down like waterfalls
Running away, never the same
Changing my view of you everyday
I watch from my window up high
All alone in this room
So many people go the same way
I think it's time that I changed my views
Like a king in his lonely kingdom
A ruler who had no rules
Ooh, I got nothing left to lose
I think it’s time that I changed my views
I think it’s time that I changed my views
I think it’s time that I changed my views
I think it’s time that I changed my views
