Look through my Window....

A song from The Mamas and the Papas, (1964). At the time I thought it was sweet. catchy. melodic... and still do.
But it's also sad, a testament to realizing "true love" might not be true anymore. I didn't fully appreciate this at the time. (quite young)

The back-story and complete lyrics are in the video description.
And, I see, taken from Wikipedia actually:

"The song was inspired by the fact that although John thought Michelle was out in California, she in fact was just blocks away in Greenwich Village.[3]"

And the rain beats on my roof...
And it does not ask for proof...
<...>
Look through my window
To the street below;
See the people hurrying by
With someone to meet, some place to go -
And I know I should let go...
She always said "I'm not like you;
When love is dead, for me it's through
And I will find and love someone new."
