WINDOWS OF THE WORLD

WINDOWS OF THE WORLD

What do you see? What do you see?
Look out the window and tell me
I see a coat, tattered and torn
I see two shoes that look weary and worn
Look once again – once more and then
Tell me – Oh, is there a man underneath?
Shivering – quivering – hungry and weak
Inside his heart - he’s crumbling apart
Look once again – is he counting on you?
What do you see – is there pain?
Does he cry?
What do you see...have you opened your eyes?
Oh, windows are truthful, windows are real
Look through each window and feel what you feel
Think of it, act on it – do what you can
Oh, open the windows to the world!
The world is one big window
Just look around and see
Is the picture a picture or just a reflection?
Does silver or gold make me hazy, unclear?
My eyes have much to ponder
My heart has more to share
As I look out my window, I can’t help but see
Is it others I see.....or do I see me?
What do you see? What do you see?
Look in this mirror and tell me
I see myself – only myself
The silver reflects only me and myself
Look once again – once more and then
Tell me – Oh, why is there nothing behind?
The silver is dark – it’s obstructing my mind
Scrape off the wealth – it’s tinting your view
Look once again and the picture is new
What do you see when you look with your soul?
What do you see?
Oh, the picture is whole!
Oh, windows are truthful, windows are real
Look through each window and feel what you feel
Think of it, act on it – do what you can
Oh, open the windows to the world!
The world is one big window
Just look around and see
Is the picture a picture or just a reflection?
Does silver or gold make me hazy, unclear?
My eyes have much to ponder
My heart has more to share
As I look out my window, I can’t help but see
Is it others I see.....or do I see me?
