if i was a window

if i was a window
what would i see?

if i was a window
what would i be?

from the inside
or from the out
would i hide
or would i be about

if i was a window
would i be clean
or would i just lean
on the window pain

if i was a window
would i
could i
be a timely refrain

if i was a window
what would i know?

know what i mean?

would i have a screen?
or would i be clear?

if i was a window
would i still have my fear?

if i was a window
where would i go?
Nebraska, Alaska, or Idaho?
maybe Texas or New Mexico,
maybe Montana
maybe Why-ome
see

i like the open spaces
places to be
i like the open country
that's just me.

if i was a window
what would i see
if i wa a window
what would i be

if i was a window
what would
what could
what should
i be

if i was a window
guess i'd just be me

clear as glass
kiss my ass
waitin' for time to pass

seein' things
from the outside
to the in
a window
bringin' light in

Good question--what if I WERE a window? What would people see through me? Makes one think and that's good. Your style is different and I like it. Thanks for the CLEARER picture . . . b
