Shop Window - Kathryn Williams

I'd pay good money to sort your head out
To blank out the screen
To take us back to simple pleasures and means

It's a barbed little comment
Not big enough for the outside to see
But that's how you love it
That's how you kept it between you and me

All appearance is kept up
Everyone is envious
Make them feel like we've
Got it made
Like a gift that some god sent to us

But it's just a shop window
You're undressing it again
I'll stand where you want me to
Pointing where our relationship's going
I'm not an arrow or dart for throwing

I'd pay good money to get out of this
To turn my back to your dream
I'd pay good money to make this window steam

It's a barbed little comment
Not big enough for the outside to see
