lyrics

The Woman in the Window
© 2016 Cindy Prince

Chorus: Now she is
just the woman in the window
A wisp of nothing,
a shadow of a ghost
Sadly now,
she's the woman in the window
She searches for
the life she lost
Bridge: The story is told in Arkansas and Missouri
It is told in Florida and all across the south
When it's quiet you might hear her
Singing softly from a lifeless mouth
Verse 1: Once upon a time, in another century
A woman lived, a woman died
She appeared to live a fairytale
Had just become a southern bride
Verse 2: She had tired after much dancing
She sat down in her gown of lace
Her eyes closed for just a moment
She was too near the fireplace
Chorus:
Verse 3: She couldn't leave to go to heaven
She didn't realize that she was dead
So her ghost stays in the window
She wonders if again she'll wed
Repeat chorus
Chorus instr
