Sittin' Beside My Window

(slow blues)

I'm sittin' beside my window, starin' out at the world
I'm sittin' beside my window, just starin' out at the world
I ain't goin' outside no more, not without my little girl

I tried to love you baby, but you know it hurt me too
Yes I tried to love you baby, but you know it hurt me too
And now I've stopped trying, girl, so I don't have to feel blue

You can live your life woman, tho' I don't wanna live mine
You can live your life woman, tho' I don't wanna live mine
I'm gonna sit here and watch girl, 'cause I'm just biding my time

You won't see me cryin', no you won't hear me shout or scream
You won't see me cryin' and, you ain't gonna hear me shout or scream
I carry my pain on the inside, so it'll only haunt my dreams

But then sometimes I'm feelin', that somethin' is comin' to me
Yeah sometimes I'm feelin', that somethin' is comin' to me
Every now and then I need to, uh, I need to set my soul free
