  The  shackles are undone
  The bullets quit the gun
  The heat thats in the sun
  Will keep us when there's none
  The rule has been disproved
  The stone has been moved
  The grain is now a groove
  All debts are removed,  oooh
 (0:45)
  Oh can't you see  what our love  has done
  Oh can't you see  what our love  has done
  Oh can't you see  what our love  has done
  What it's doing to me
 (1:08)
  Love  makes strange enemies
  Makes love where love may please
  Soul in its strip tease
  Hate brought to its knees
  The sky over our  head
  We can reach it from our bed
  If you let me in your heart
  And out of my head
 (1:32)
  Oh can't you see what our love has done
  Oh can't you see what our love has done
  Oh can't you see what our love has done
  What it's doing to me
 (1:55)
  Oh  oh oh oh
  Oh  oh oh oh
  Please  don't ever let me out of here
 (2:10)
 
  I've got no  shame
  oh no,  oh no
 (2:30)
  Oh can't you see  what love  has done
  Oh can't you see
  Oh can't you see  what love  has done
  What it's doing to me
 (2:50)
  Oh I know I hurt  you and I made  you cry
  Did everything but murder you  and I
  But love  left a window  in the skies
  And to love  I rhapsodize
 Chorus Freestyle 2: (3:11)
  Oh can't you see  what love  has done  to every broken heart
  Oh can't you see  what love  has done  for every heart that cries
  Love  left a window  in the skies
  And to love  I rhapsodize
 (3:34)
 
  ...........  Oh can't you see ...........
 "Love is the beauty of the soul." - Augustine
 The title of this song and its lyrics remind me of Augustine's view of the inner self.
 when one looks inward to the "rooms" within does one find an open courtyard with no
 ... one that is open ... one that provides an upward look to God ... a type of "window
 the sky" so to speak. This window was put there by God/Love in each of us and hence the
 form "Windows in the Skies".
