The Window
Embracing Change: A Window to Hope and Renewal in Alisa Turner's Song
Lyrics
The change has begun
The process of change has initiated
Another season done
Completion of another season
A new one to come
Anticipation for a new season to begin
I’ve been inside for weeks
Extended period indoors
My body frail and weak
Physical condition is fragile and lacking strength
Ravaged by disease
Affected and weakened by illness
But I’ve got this window right next to my bed
A window located near the bed
To keep an eye out for the changes ahead
Observing changes that are expected
To watch the rain fall, soon will come snow
Monitoring rain and anticipating snowfall
There blows the wind, and deep down I know
Noting the presence of wind with an inner understanding
If trees can die and come back to life
Contemplating the resilience of nature, drawing parallels
Then I think there’s hope for me too
Expressing hope for personal recovery
But in the meantime
During the waiting period
I’ll watch the world from my window view
Observing the world through the window
If only I could see
Desire to see beyond the window
The window fogged on me
Obscured vision due to window fogging
I think it’s snowing
Noticing snowfall despite impaired visibility
The kids are out to play
Children playing outside
They look for me and wave
Children searching for and acknowledging the speaker
The highlight of my day
Interaction with the outside world is a highlight
Is this window right next to my bed
Reiteration of the significance of the nearby window
To keep an eye out for the changes ahead
Continued observation for expected changes
To watch the rain fall, soon will come snow
Expectation of rain transforming into snow
There blows the wind, and deep down I know
Acknowledging the presence of wind with certainty
If trees can die and come back to life
Reflection on the resilience of trees and its relevance
Then I think there’s hope for me too
Expressing personal hope based on nature's example
But in the meantime
During the interim period
I’ll watch the world from my window view
Continued observation of the world through the window
The neighbors are hanging lights
Neighbors engaging in festive lighting
To make for a beautiful bright night
Creating a visually appealing night
And I’ve got a front row seat
Speaker enjoys a prime viewing location
Don’t forget me
A plea not to be forgotten during festivities
Here in this window right next to my bed
Reiteration of the importance of the nearby window
To keep an eye out for the changes ahead
Continued vigilance for anticipated changes
To watch the rain fall, soon will come snow
Anticipation of rain turning into snowfall
There blows the wind, and deep down I know
Acknowledging the presence of wind with assurance
If trees can die and come back to life
Reflecting on the resilience of trees and its relevance
Then I think there’s hope for me too
Expressing personal hope based on nature's example
But in the meantime
During the interim period
I’ll watch the world from my window view
Continued observation of the world through the window
