Testo Room With A View Tina Dickow
I need a room with a view
An armchair by the window
a cup of coffee and a cigarette or two
Watch the sky turn from hazy grey to black
Watch my neighbours go to work
and look exhausted and burned out when they get back
Thinking âbout you
Thank God for this beautiful view
I recall you took me swimming
the sea was dark and cold
Youâd been there many times before
with many different girls, Iâd been told
But whatâs a man without a past
We love him for his lies
and then we try to break him down to make it last
till they come true
Thank God for this beautiful view
Beautiful view
you, you, you...
I still love you
The dark is falling
the city fills with lights
Cars like shining pearls on strings
moving through the emptiness of night
The wine is running to my head
Iâm spellbound by the moment
canât get up, canât find the strength to go to bed
without you
Thank God for this beautiful view
Beautiful view
you, you, you...
I still love you
Iâve been blind
too blind to tell false from true
Iâve been so busy running
never stopped to think where I was running to
But Iâve learned my lessons
from the tears Iâve had to cry
Sometimes it helps to take your time
to sit alone and watch the world go by
Cause every day itâs new
Thank God for this beautiful view
Every day itâs new
Thank God for this beautiful view
Thank God for this beautiful view
