Dionne Warwick - The Windows of The World (Scepter Records 1967) descargar videos gratis

"The Windows of the World" is the title of a song written by Burt Bacharach (music) and Hal David (lyrics) which was a hit single for Dionne Warwick in 1967.

"The Windows of the World" represented a thematic departure for Warwick who had built her career as a romantic balladeer and had passed on the chance to introduce "What the World Needs Now is Love" (although her stated objection to the last-named was not its theme but rather that it sounded "too country"). Released in July 1967, "The Windows of the World" was not one of Warwick's biggest hits reaching #32 on the Billboard Hot 100 (#27 R&B/ #32 Easy Listening). However Warwick stated in 2002 that "The Windows of the World" was her favorite of all of her singles.

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
