I can hear the wheels

Of the automobiles

So far away

Just moving along through the drifting snow

It's times like these

When the temperatures freeze

I sit alone

Looking at the world through a storm window

And down on the beach

The sandman sleeps

Time don't fly

It bounds and leaps

And a country band

That plays for keeps

They play it so slow



Chorus:

Don't let your baby down

Don't let your baby down

Don't let your baby down





Well the spirits were high

Til the well went dry

For so long

The raven at my window

Was only a crow

I bought the rights

To the inside fights

And watched a man

Just beating his hand

Against a storm window

While miles away

O'er hills and steams

A candle burns

A witch's dreams

And silence is golden

Til it screams

Right through your bones





Storm windows

Gee but I'm getting old

Storm windows

Keep away the cold
