Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 just 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 [Verse 2] 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 Watched a man just beating his hand against a storm window While miles away, o'er hills and streams A candle burns a witch's dreams Silence is golden 'til it screams Right through your bones [Chorus] Don't let your baby down Don't let your baby down Don't let your baby down [Bridge] Storm windows Gee but I'm getting old Storm windows Keep away the cold [Bridge] Storm windows Gee but I'm getting old Storm windows Keep away the cold [Verse 1] 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 just 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 music 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
