Look Through My Window
(And the rain beats on my roof)
(And it does not ask for proof)
It's not that lovers are unkind
She always said there'd come a time
When one would leave and one stay behind
We both knew people sometimes change
And lovers sometimes rearrange
And nothing's quite as sure as change
And the rain beats on my roof
Look through my window (yeah)
To the street below
See the people hurryin' by
With someone to meet, someplace to go
And I know I should let go
She always said 'I'm not like you
When love is dead for me it's through
And I will find and love someone new
(and I will love somebody new)
Look through my window (yeah)
To the street below
See the people hurryin' by
With someone to meet, someplace to go
And I know I should let go
I must admit she knew her mind
And it will not take her long to find
Another place where the sun will shine
(another place, another place where the sun will shine)
(And the rain beats on my roof)
(If I still require proof)
(Well the rain beats on my roof) She's gone
(If I still require proof) She's gone
(Well the rain beats on my roof)
Look through my window
(If I still require proof)
All the people
(Well the rain beats on my roof) I love her
(If I still require proof) She's gone
Boy, if this song didn't strick me
It could be song track to the swan bird song of my relationship!
I can quote so many instances in the song where they directly apply
Just the title, "Look Through My Window", is frighteningly scary
When I look into Dina's eyes
I am looking through her window
I always said her eyes where one of her greatest attributes,
When you could get her to let you see them
They were very mischevious
I didn't know there could be a lot more
Well, I played drums at a bar today with some friends
Afterwards, I met a young lady and asked her to have a coffee with me
She said she would have a tea or a smoothie
We sat and talked for over two hours
It was pleasant to be with a woman who acted like she enjoyed being with me
Dina seems to be wrapped deeply in her own self these days
Dinaland has two hundred foot walls, nobody can scale those walls
Because the song was so symbolic of our relationship, I have become further convinced
I need to let go (it is written in the song four times) Isn't that enough?
Dina says, 'I ask for a break and you just push harder'
I will not even attempt to unravel the dual logic that statement is comprised of
Dina does not need to treat me like an unwanted lover
She has cut me off from seeing her or doing anything with her
Except email.
She said yesterday
'I like to write to you.
It really helps to honor feelings.
I am happy to write as feel that this helps us both.'
This doesn't help us both,
It helps Dina
She can control everything around her
To serve her purposes
That is not wrong
It is controlling
And I don't understand the purpose
Nor has she helped me understand
She just demanded things be this way
So, here I am
I am being sucked through a straw
The analytical control she is enacting is excruciating
I don't understand why
If you love someone
As she says she does me
Then why are you not willing to talk to them
Even in some pre-set up scenario
Where she still gets everything she wants
But I don't get treated like foul fish wrap
Somebody just slid under the door
There is nothing to say
The song says it all
Look through my window (yeah)
To the street below
See the people hurryin' by
With someone to meet, someplace to go
And I know I should let go
She always said 'I'm not like you
When love is dead for me it's through
And I will find and love someone new
Even if someone new is Dina being Alone
Without Richard
