Five years ago I was your bride Bought a little house to live inside Four walls around us a roof in the sky And a big picture window you can watch the world go by And though my spirit is bound to Rome It settled right down with you in this home And now I'm longing each time I fly For that big picture window you can watch the world go by Two years ago one early morn Been to this house, a baby was born You rocked him to sleep a sweet lullaby At the big picture window you can watch the world go by Welcome the day I drive this road With the spirit that's bound to Rome To call him back his momma will cry At the picture window you can watch the world go by
