From His Window
© 1997 Johnsmith, Blue Pine Music (ASCAP)
He stands beside the window, he watches cars go by
He waves at everybody, he's just a friendly guy
He doesn't know what day it is, he doesn't talk much anymore
Sometimes he cries when he means to laugh
The doctors say he can't help that
I come to visit and take him out on drives
He wants to go home with me every time
But the nurses come to take him
Back to his room that's waiting
I fight to keep my tears inside
From his window, he waves good-bye
Where has the time all gone to, it seems like only yesterday
We used to dance upon his shoes, back on Sunday afternoons
He was a mountain standing tall, doing his best to raise us all
We always had enough to eat, he worked two jobs to make ends meet
But now it seems, he can't remember that
And it's hard for the rest of us to understand
But when I come to visit, he knows my name and says it
And I fight to keep my tears inside
From his window, he waves good-bye
But when I come to visit, he knows my name and he says it
It makes me glad I made the drive
From his window, he waves good-bye
From his window, he waves good-bye
