I wrote this song in 1980, wondering what it must feel like to have to go to work when you'd rather be with your family and loved ones. Now I know how it feels.

Face In The Window (1981)
written by James Buckley

Ooooh Ooooh Ooooh Ooooh
Its a six o’clock morning…I wake up and you’re there
To me its just another day…But do you really care

I pick up my old briefcase…I’m headed on my way
Another workday comin’…You’ve not a word to say

The world’s so very tough out there
You’d think I’d had enough, I swear
It’s so hard to leave you with your face in the window everyday

You know it ain’t easy…To do the job I do
I can’t help thinkin’ of you…I’ll be home very soon

The world’s so very tough out there…
You’d think I’d had enough, I swear

It’s so hard to leave you with your face in the window everyday
I ’m calling you on the phone…You’re always there at home

As I go on and on and on…It hurts to be without you
It’s so hard to leave you with your face in the window everyday


Ooooh Ooooh Ooooh Ooooh
