debra walton - windows lyrics

[joan]
looking out this window in the dead of winter
praying i will see them dredging up the driveway
then suddenly, i’m gazing out another window
i’m in a car, it’s fifteen years ago
dezzie’s only three, he’s next to me
safe in the lap of the pianist in my band
he’s my husband, my young husband
mr. sapper’s in the front, he bears the brunt
of the driving tonight to our gig in cincinnati

looking out the window
i can see the headlights of a truck behind us
it’s getting closer
sapper speeding up, but it’s too late
the truck is bearing down, and no
i can’t remember
oh, what happened next?

i’m flat, on the floor, in the back
mr. sapper is moaning by the windshield
and dez? where is dez?
thrown from the car, banged his head, broke his ribs
when the truck came crashing through
sapper’s not to blame
still, i almost lost my little boy, my son
then i knew that my days on the road were all done
looking out this window, staring out this window
seems there’s only bad luck when i’m looking out of windows
lord, hear my voice, please, if you would
turn my bad luck back into good
trusting in you, i make this vow
i’ll be here waiting right by this window until you free them
’cause i need to see them right now
