| I heard glass shatter on the wall
|
| In the apartment above mine
|
| At first, I thought that I was dreamin'
|
| But then I heard the voice of a girl
|
| And it sounded like she’d been cryin'
|
| Now I’m too worried to be sleepin'
|
| So I took the elevator to the second floor
|
| Walked down the hall and then I knocked upon her door
|
| She opened up, and I asked about the things I’ve been hearing
|
| She said, «I think your ears are playing tricks on you»
|
| Sweater zipped up to her chin
|
| «Thanks for caring, sir, that’s nice of you
|
| But I have to go back in
|
| Wish I could tell you about the noise
|
| But I didn’t hear a thing»
|
| She said, «It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
|
| Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind»
|
| She said, «It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
|
| Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind»
|
| So I was layin' on the floor of my room
|
| Cold concrete on my back
|
| No, I just couldn’t shake the feeling
|
| I didn’t want to intrude 'cause I knew
|
| That I didn’t have all the facts
|
| But I couldn’t bear the thought of leavin' her
|
| So I took the elevator to the second floor
|
| Walked down the hall and then I knocked upon her door
|
| She opened up, and I asked about the things I’ve been hearing
|
| She said, «I think your ears are playing tricks on you»
|
| Sweater zipped up to her chin
|
| «Thanks for caring, sir, that’s nice of you
|
| But I have to go back in
|
| Wish I could tell you about the noise
|
| But I didn’t hear a thing»
|
| She said, «It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
|
| Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind»
|
| She said, «It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
|
| Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind»
|
| Aim my boombox at the roof, I’m playing «Lean On Me»
|
| Just so that she knows that she can lean on me
|
| And when she hears the words, I hope she knows she’ll be okay
|
| Aim my boombox at the roof, I’m playing «Lean On Me»
|
| Just so that she knows that she can lean on me
|
| And when she hears the words, I know exactly what I’ll say
|
| «Promise I’m not playing tricks on you
|
| You’re always welcome to come in
|
| You could stay here for an hour or two
|
| If you ever need a friend»
|
| «We can talk about the noise, when you’re ready, but 'til then»
|
| I’ll say, «It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
|
| Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind»
|
| I’ll say, «It must have been the wind, must have been the wind
|
| Must have been the wind, it must have been the wind» |
