Marvin Gaye
Outside My Window
[Verse 1]
As I sit here by my window
And I look out on the street
I see something not so pleasing
I'm wondering, how could we let this be
Is it too late to save what we had
We can't ignore what's going on
If we put efforts into something positive
We can make a better world to live in
[Verse 2]
As I sit here by my window
I'm seeing things I can't believe
Children killing for no reason
I wish this menace would disappear
Is it right that people to go hungry
We can't ignore what's going on
If we put efforts into something positive
We can make a better world to live in
[Chorus]
As I look outside my window
I see something I can't believe (Oh no, no)
And if I close my window
What will the future bring?
(What will the future bring?)
I wanna know
[Verse 3]
As I lie here by my window
Children sleeping on the streets
Mothers, fathers have no place to go
Where is our God when we need him so?
Is it too late to save what we had
We can't ignore what's going on
If we put efforts into something positive
We can make a better world to live in, oh yeah
[Chorus]
As I look outside my window
(As I look outside my window)
I see something I can't believe (No)
And if I close my window
What will the future bring?
(What will the future bring?)
As I look outside my window
(As I look outside my window)
I see something I can't believe
And if I close my window
What will the future bring?
(What will the future bring?)
[Outro]
Mmm, I wanna know
What will the future bring?
Won't you listen to me?
Ooh, ooh
Oh, I wanna know
What will the future bring?
Mmm, I wanna know
What will the future bring?
Won't you listen to me?
I'm seeing things I can't believe
Ooh, I wanna know
What will the future bring?
