Windows of the World

Dionne Warwick

Words by Hal David; music by Burt Bacharach.



The windows of the world are covered with rain,

Where is the sunshine we once knew?

Ev'rybody 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 black skies turn to blue?

Ev'rybody 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?

Ev'rybody knows when men can not be friends

Their quarrel often ends where 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.

Ev'rybody knows whenever rain appears

It's really angel tears.

How long must they cry?

Let the sun shine through.
