Up every morning
Long before day
Cooking her breakfast alone
She quietly dresses
And pulls up the shades
And sits in the chair by
The phone
But nobody ever comes
By anymore
Nobody ever calls
Most days she sits and
Just stares
At the windows and walls
Windows and walls
Children all married
Husband's passed on
Nothing but time on her hands
Most of her mornings
Are spent in her dreams
Or making her sad little plans
Maybe she'll go to the
Corner today
And pick up the new McCalls
If just to escape for an hour
From her windows and walls
Windows and walls
Long before day
Cooking her breakfast alone
She quietly dresses
And pulls up the shades
And sits in the chair by
The phone
But nobody ever comes

Nobody ever calls
Most days she sits and

Windows and walls
Children all married
Husband's passed on
Nothing but time on her hands
Most of her mornings
Are spent in her dreams
Or making her sad little plans
Maybe she'll go to the
Corner today
And pick up the new McCalls
If just to escape for an hour
From her windows and walls
Windows and walls
