Lyrics

OUT YOUR WINDOW

If you jump out your window, I will break you fall
I'll hold you close and keep you calm wherever you decide to go

Please, please don't go
Please, please don't go
Please don't go
Please, please don't go

(Don't you be jumping out)
(Don't you be jumping out)
(Your window)
(Don't you be jumping out)
(Don't you be jumping out)
(Your window)

I came outside to meet you in the lunchtime sun (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Waiting with the other screaming maniacs there (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Then I saw a silhouette up on the roof (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I ran to climb the stairwell up to you

Come on down, the water's warm
I'll sail away with you
Come on down, we're waiting here
And hold your head up high

(Don't you be jumping out)
(Don't you be jumping out)
(Your window)
(Don't you be jumping out)
(Don't you be jumping out)
(Your window)

(Don't you be jumping out)
(Don't you be jumping out)
(Your window)

(Don't you be jumping out) please
(Don't you be jumping out) please come home
(Your window) ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

(Don't you be jumping out) please
(Don't you be jumping out) please come home
(Your window) ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

Please, please come home (ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

    Where to start with Patti Smith’s albums, whether you want poetry or punk

    Start with Horses for Patti Smith’s fusion of poetry and punk, then follow the route that suits your ear: harder rock, immediate songs, later reflection or spoken-word experiments.
