Get me now while I'm alive
For all is fading fast
In clouds of indecision
Your lovers from the past

Well if you wanna stop and start
I hope you're satisfied
With what you ran away from
'Cause with me you never tried

'Cause you have had more windows
More windows in a row
Than anyone I care for
You know I'd even let you go

Oh it's hard to make a promise
When we're both young and old
Cn't say if your investment
Will be repaid in gold

'Cause you are much too serious
I can't afford to be
I've seen you at my window
And you're good enough for me

Get me now while I'm alive
On fire at your threshold
And if this is too much for you
Return to nothing special

'Cause you have been too serious
I can't afford to be
I've seen you at my window
And you're good enough for me

Tall shadows in the evening
The evening is fading fast
The kind of love I been dealing out
Has come to me at last

'Cause you have had more windows
More windows in a row
Than anyone I cared for
You know, I'd even let you go
