On the Other Side of the Window

The lifting crane,
the crowded train,
the slap of glue,
the rendezvous.

The pavement laid,
the payment made,
the traveled mile,
the answered smile.

Out there on the other side of the window.
Out there on the other side of the window.

the letter mailed,
the job that failed,
the great success,
the warm caress.

Out there on the other side of the window.
Out there on the other side of the window.

What was your intention? (repeated)

The building lot,
the cultish plot,
the conference room,
the bride and groom.

Cross-eyed seer.
Van Goghish listener.
Insulated toucher.
Mute-buttoned talker.
(shoe shod shambler)

What was your intention?
What was your invention?
What was your contention?
What was your convention?
What was your dimension?
What was your
—Don’t mention it!

The lifting crane,
the crowded train,
the slap of glue,
the rendezvous.

Out there on the other side of the window.
Out there on the other side of the window.

about

David Garland New York, New York

Composer/singer/multi-instrumentalist David Garland has been steadily shaping songs in new ways since 1980.

"Like many great songwriters before him, Garland pushes the limits of acceptable harmony and dissonance, yet never at the expense of beauty. If it's not possible for popular music to reach the heights of the great classical masters, it seems no one has told David Garland."
--Sean Lennon
