[Verse 1]
I sit here at my window, I see life as I d like it to be,
But it don t see me, so I ll just go on sitting,
You might call it quitting, hoping that the bad times will all pass,
But they won t, cause my world s just made of glass!
[Verse 2]
Re - member in the children s story, Tell me, mirror, who s fairest of all?
Well, then you ll re - call... that the Queen went on be - lieving,
We call it de - cieving, thinking that her looks were just top class,
But they weren t, cause your world s just made of glass!
[Bridge]
*
In a bus, in a plane, in a car, in a train,
* *
Or in our homes, it s really just the same,
*
We re always looking out with a puzzled kind of grin,
* *
But, per - haps, we d all do better looking in!
[Verse 4]
The next time you go to your window, don t just sit there, just open it wide,
Put your head out - side, then you won t be just sitting,
Folks won t call it quitting, hoping that the bad times will all pass,
But they will, for your world s not made of glass!
