The Windows of the World Lyrics


The windows of the world
Are covered with rain
Where is the sunshine
We once knew
Everybody knows:
When little children play
They need a sunny day
To grow straight and tall
Let the sun shine through
The windows of the world
Are covered with rain
When will those grey skies turn to blue
Everybody knows
When boys grow into men
They start to wonder when
Their country will call
Let the sun shine through

The windows of the world
Are covered with rain
What is the whole world coming to?
Everybody knows
When men cannot be friends
Their quarrel often ends
With some have to die
Let the sun shine through
The windows of the world
Are covered with rain
There must be something
We can do
Everybody knows
Whenever rain appears
It’s really angel-tears
How long must they cry!
Let the sun shine through

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
The Pretenders are a rock band who came to prominence during the punk and new wave movement of the late 1970s due to their innovative songwriting and charismatic performances. The original band consisted of group founder, songwriter, vocalist, and rhythm guitarist Chrissie Hynde, lead and rhythm guitarist James Honeyman-Scott, bassist Pete Farndon, and drummer Martin Chambers. Save for Hynde, a native of Akron, Ohio, the original band members were all from the U.K. This band was fractured by drug-related deaths and numerous subsequent personnel changes have taken place over the years, with Hynde as the sole constant. With Hynde at the helm, the band drifted through more adult contemporary-oriented territory, but experienced a critical resurgence with a trio of albums released between the mid-90s and early 00s that explored a more mature side of the band's classic sound.
