I watched from my window As she slipped from the house Once again she's leaving But Lord, she's not to blame This morning a memory phoned her And he's a habit she can't break So 'til she returns I'll wait for her Lookin' out my window Through the pain The devil drove the taxi That carried her away And it hurts to know she's hung up on Some guy from yesterday Once again she's chasing memories And I'm losing everything But I love her So I'll wait for her Lookin' out my window Through the pain I'll pick up the pieces When he lets her down again With love and understanding I'll give her reasons this time to stay And I'll close my eyes pretending Maybe someday she will change Then I won't be left lonely Looking out my window Through the pain Yes, the devil drove the taxi That carried her away And it hurts to know she's still hung up on Some guy from yesterday Once again she's chasing memories And I'm losing everything But Lord, I love her So I'll wait for her Looking out my window Through the pain

The clouds that gathered turned to rain The candles on your sill burned out The weather on your face Turned to match the mood outside Reading through poems that you saved That make the gloomy hours make sense Or do they lose their power With the yellowing of age I saw you suffering Through a foggy window in the rain When you thought no one was watching, yeah Going through your memories Like so many prisons to escape And become someone else With another face And another name No more suffering You sold the best of yourself out On a chain of grey and white lies One syllable at a time You should have made them pay A higher price I saw you suffering Through the cracked and dirty window pane I was ashamed that I was watching, yeah Going through your imagination Looking for a life you could create And become somebody else, yeah With another face With another name No more suffering I wish that I could find a seed And plant a tree that grows so high So that I could climb And harvest the ripe stars For you and I to drink And spit the ashes from our mouths And put the grey back in the clouds And send them packing with our bags Of old regrets and sorrows 'Cause they don't do a thing but drag us down So far down The past is like a braided rope Each moment tightly coiled inside I saw you suffering Through the yellow window of a train With everybody watching, yeah Too tired for imagining That you could ever love somebody else From somewhere far away From another time And another place With another life And another face And another name And another name No more suffering.

I've learned to slam on the brake Before I even turn the key Before I make the mistake Before I lead with the worst of me Give them no reason to stare No slipping up if you slip away So I got nothing to share No, I got nothing to say Step out, step out of the sun if you keep getting burned Step out, step out of the sun because you've learned Because you've learned On the outside always looking in Will I, ever be more than I've always been? 'Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass I'm waving through a window I, tried to speak but nobody can hear So I, wait around for an answer to appear While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass I'm waving through a window Can anybody see, is anybody waving back at me? We start with stars in our eyes We start believing that we belong But every sun doesn't rise And no one tells you where you went wrong Step out, step out of the sun if you keep getting burned Step out, step out of the sun because you've learned Because you've learned On the outside always looking in Will I, ever be more than I've always been? Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass Waving through a window I, tried to speak but nobody can hear So I, wait around for an answer to appear While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass Waving through a window Can anybody see, is anybody waving? When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around Do you ever really crash or even make a sound? When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around Do you ever really crash or even make a sound? When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around Do you ever really crash or even make a sound? When you're falling in a forest and there's nobody around Do you ever really crash or even make a sound? Did I even make a sound? Did I even make a sound? It's like I never made a sound Will I ever make a sound? On the outside always looking in Will I, ever be more than I've always been? Cause I'm tap, tap, tapping on the glass Waving through a window I, tried to speak but nobody can hear So I, wait around for an answer to appear While I'm watch, watch, watching people pass Waving through a window Can anybody see, is anybody waving back at me? (Woah-oh) Is anybody waving (woah-oh) Waving, waving Whoa-oh, whoa-oh-oh-oh
