《Lookin’ In》歌词

[00:00:00] Lookin' In - Bobbie Gentry

[00:00:03] Can't seem to settle down

[00:00:07] Maybe I'll just hang around

[00:00:12] But every time you pick me up

[00:00:17] I guess I take you down

[00:00:22] But here I am again

[00:00:25] You'll take me back and then

[00:00:30] It won't be long till I'll be gone

[00:00:34] Upon my way again

[00:00:43] So I spend my days thinkin' up new ways

[00:00:47] To do the same old thing

[00:00:52] Seasons come and go without a name

[00:00:58] And I spend my nights in the bright spotlights

[00:01:02] Wishin' I could let the people know

[00:01:06] Can't win or lose unless you play the game

[00:01:18] Sittin' in the airport awaitin' on my plane

[00:01:25] Nothin' to do for an hour or two

[00:01:28] So I try to find a message in a picture I drew

[00:01:35] In the corner of a letter from a boy I knew

[00:01:42] Off the plane and through the rain into a limousine

[00:01:49] The traffic's slow so I miss my show

[00:01:53] But lookin' out the window somehow I know

[00:01:59] That they're about to play my record

[00:02:01] On the radio

[00:02:06] So I write another song as I go along

[00:02:09] To let you know just where I been

[00:02:14] Don't want to meet myself at the masquerade

[00:02:21] You can tell in the verse if I get worse

[00:02:24] By the chorus I may be fine

[00:02:29] A line my friend can end the kind charade

[00:02:40] Layin' in my hotel room wantin' to be alone

[00:02:47] Needin' the time to rest my mind

[00:02:51] But they bring in another stack of papers to sign

[00:02:58] And L A 's awaitin' on the other line

[00:03:04] So I'm packin' up and I'm checking out

[00:03:09] I'm on the road again

[00:03:12] Feeling like I'm bringing pen to mind

[00:03:16] But the words will come to me in their own time

[00:03:22] Tumbling and stumbling over in rhyme

[00:03:29] And the ugliest word that I ever heard

[00:03:32] My friends is sacrifice

[00:03:37] It's an easy out for all you should have been

[00:03:43] And if there's one thing

[00:03:45] That I just can't bring myself to compromise

[00:03:51] It's blamin' somebody else for the state I'm in

[00:03:58] Oh but then again

[00:04:02] Daddy never loved his baby girl no how

[00:04:09] Ah what's the difference now
