This Room (live at BBS Maida Vale Studios)

Sit and watch you from my window,
Giving yourself away.
You've been working hard all day.

I see the ground catch at your feet,
I see the sweet signs of defeat,
Like you're beaten but you feel no pain.

And then you turn to me instinctively,
Checking if you're alone,
Like a reflex from my guilty mind.

I fall away into the background,
Like a shadow on the wall,
To leave you with your peace of mind.

I watch from, my window up high,
All alone in this room.
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my view.

Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules.
Ooh, I got nothing got left to lose,
An' I think it's time that I changed my view.

Why did you choose my way,
Why did you come down this lonely street?
Was it to meet me,
Was it to tango,
Well the roots they sound so sweet.

Sweeter than gold,
Sweeter than fame,
Sweeter than honey,
Won't power the money.

Walking along this lonely street,
Someone I'd like to meet,
Someone I'd like to know,
As a kindred soul.

Oh so spiritual, the sound ran down like waterfalls.
Running away, never the same,
Changing my view of you everyday.

I watch from, my window up high,
All alone in this room.
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my view.

Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules.
Ooh, I got nothing got left to lose,
An' I think it's time that I changed my view.

I watch from, my window up high,
All alone in this room.
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my view.

Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules.
Ooh, I got nothing got left to lose,
An' I think it's time that I changed my view.

I watch from, my window up high,
All alone in this room.
So many people go the same way,
I think it's time that I changed my view.

Like a king in his lonely kingdom,
A ruler who had no rules.
Ooh, I got nothing got left to lose,
An' I think it's time that I changed my view.
