Room With A View lyrics

I need a room with a view An armchair by the window a cup of coffee and a cigarette or two Watch the sky turn from hazy gray to black Watch my neighbours go to work and look exhausted and burned out when they get back Thinking about you Thank God for this beautiful view I recall you took me swimming the sea was dark and cold You’d been there many times before with many different girls, I’d been told But what’s a man without a past We love him for his lies and then we try to break him down to make it last ’til they come true Thank God for this beautiful view Beautiful view You, you, you... I still love you The dark is falling and the city fills with lights Cars like shining pearls on strings moving through the emptiness of night The wine is running to my head I’m spellbound by the moment can’t get up, can’t find the strength to go to bed Without you Thank God for this beautiful view Beautiful view You, you, you... I still love you I’ve been blind too blind to tell false fro
m true I’ve been so busy running never stopped to think where I was running to But I’ve learned my lesson from the tears I’ve had to cry Sometimes it helps to take your time to sit alone and watch the world go by Cause every day it’s new Thank God for this beautiful view Every day it’s new Thank God for this beautiful view Thank God for this beautiful view
