Teardrop windows crying in the sky He is all alone and wondering why Ivory white but feeling kind of blue 'cause there's no one there to share the view There's too man vacancies He's been feeling oh so empty When the sun sets over the south He just goes to sleep Built and boast as the tallest on the coast He was once the city's only toast In old post cards, was positioned as a star He was looked up to a fonder guard But in 1962, the needle made its big debut And everybody forgot what it outgrew He wonders where the workers are The ones filled every floor The elevators operate But don't much anymore, anymore, anymore Teardrop windows crying in the sky How the years have quickly passed him by Clean and white against the deepest baby blue He is lonely just like me and you There's too many vacancies He's been feeling so empty When the sun sets over the south He just goes to sleep There's too many vacancies He's been feeling oh so empty When the maids they turn out the lights He just goes to sleep
