Folks, I dare to present you another of my »Pandemic«-Songs, if only because I put so much effort into the video back then. (Didn’t we have plenty of time back then?)
The title is
»Looking Out Of My Window«.
It started in Band-in-a-Box with the style CHUKSHUF.STY, 160 bpm, in the key of D.
I kept only the original bass and drum tracks, the other tracks I took as MIDI and used the instruments in REASON. Added my vocals, of course.
Lyrics:Looking Out Of My Window
© 2020 OPUR I’m looking out of my window
up to the sky that is so blue
I’m looking out of my window
’cos I’ve got nothing else to do
I’m looking out of my window
down on deserted avenues
I’m looking out of my window
and feel so lonely and recluse
I used to dance under the shining stars
look for romance in those shady bars
I used to talk to some guys I knew
and we would drink until the night was through
I’m looking out of my window
I see you looking out of yours
I wave my hand and you answer
I wish I had been more assured
I’m looking out of my window
and wish I’d asked you out last year
when I saw you for the first time
then maybe now you would be here
oh, we would dance we’d dance the whole night through
we would romance ’til all our dreams came true
and we would talk, we’d really make a start
and we would love, make love with all our hearts
I’m looking out of my window
and I won’t believe my eyes
for days your window is closed now
and I’m afraid that I know why
There was an ambulance this morning
stood for an hour before your door
and when it finally departed
I knew I won’t see you no more
We’ll never dance, I’ll never know your name
no romance, no singing in the rain
we should have talked when we met before
but it’s too late now – nevermore!
