Just outside my window late last night
I heard two lovers quarreling, what a fight
I heard her say to him, you lied to me
And he said to her, it's not my fault you see
In angry words she said, I gave my heart
You built my castles up, then made hers part.
Then he said to her, two wrongs don't make a right
These words I heard outside my window late last night
I turned the porch light down, thought they would leave
The blame she put on him, you won't believe
In a lowly tone, he tried hard to explain
But it's not my fault, he said to her again
From where I stood, I heard the teardrops fall
She said to him, you promised you would call
I sat up by the phone all through the night
These things I heard outside my window late last night
