Teardrop Windows

Teardrop windows crying in the sky

He is all alone and wondering why

Ivory white but feeling kinda blue

'Cause there's no one there to share the view

There's too many vacancies

He's been feeling oh so empty

And when the sun sets over the sound

He just goes to sleep

Built no boats as the tallest on the coast

He was once a city's only toast

And in old postcards was positioned as the star

He was looked up to with fond regard

But in 1962 the needle made its big debut

And everybody forgot what it outgrew

He wonders where the workers are who once filled every floor

And the elevators operate nut don't much anymore

Teardrop windows crying in the sky

How the years have quickly passed him by

Gleeming white against sky of baby blue

He is lonely just like me and you

There's too many vacancies

He's been feeling oh so empty

And when the maids they turn out the lights

He just goes to sleep
