Window by Patty Larkin Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I thought by now, by this time
I'd be looking out the window in some finery
Across the street at the beat-up bar
I'd be watching some poor devil stumble by my brand new car
Well I thought by now I would have it made
Lift the shade, take a look out
But right now all i see
Is my own face in the window looking back at me

[Verse 2]
I thought by now, by this time
I'd be waiting at the window for some kind of sign
And I would be somebody's wife
With a tiny little baby gonna pass me by in life
I, I thought by now I would have it made
Life would be nearly perfect
But right now all i see
I've been standing at the window on my own two feet

[Verse 3]
I thought by now, by this time
I'd bе turning 'round the corner on a moonlit night
And it would seem I had it all beat
Zipping up thе leather on the cold hard street
Well I, I thought by now things would change
Turn the page, happy ending
But right now all I see
The people on the sidewalk look a lot like me
[Bridge]
Never satisfied
I'm never satisfied
Am I?

[Verse 4]
I thought by now, by this time
I would be the keeper of my destiny
And I would live the best of lives
Whatever the hell that was in my own mind's eye
Well I, I thought by now I would have it made
Lift the shade, take a look out
But right now all I see
Is my own face in the window looking back at me
But right now all I see
Is my own face in the window
My own face in the window
My own face in the window
