Townes Van Zandt — At My Window

[Verse 1] At my window watching the sun go Hoping the stars know it's time to shine Daydreams aloft on dark wings Soft as the sun streams at day's decline [Chorus] Living is laughing Dying says nothing at all Babe and I are lying here Watching the evening fall [Verse 2] Well, time flows through brave beginnings And she leaves her endings beneath our feet Walk lightly upon their faces Leave gentle traces upon their sleep [Chorus 2] Ah living is dancing Dying does nothing at all Babe and I lying here Watching the evening fall [Verse 3] Three dimes, hard luck, and good times Fast lines and low rhymes ain't much to say Feel fine, feel low and lazy Feel gray and hazy, feel far away [Chorus 3] Ah living is sighing Dying ain't flying so high Babe and I lying here Watching the day go by
