People in the Window - C-Rock

The lights were on all night again In the first house on the right The voices echoed around again And the light shone in my eyes Looking in the window I thought maybe I would see you In the room at the top of the stairs And maybe I would see myself Lying there beside you Right where I remember When I used to live there You called to me, you called me here To the house all painted white And I answered 'cause I knew that I I was doing something right But looking in the window I was doing something wrong Waiting for my heart to slow And I wouldn't recognize myself So young and desperate A stranger on a corner In a town he used to know But I'm still here So tell me, where'd you go? Looking in the window I thought maybe I would see you Staring at the ceiling Or lost in some strange dream Maybe I would hear you Talking to your lover Your faces cut to pieces By the window screen But I'm still here, So tell me, where'd you go?

There's a road that I remember leading to a special place Where the door was always open to a smiling face There's a picture on the mantle of a boy who looks like me And it's always the same, there's a stocking with my name And a candle in the window, a flame against the night There's a candle in the window, it's like God's perfect light Now it don't take a lot of money, oh, to know what riches are Just a candle in the window Oh, and Christmas in your heart, in your heart Maybe it's just wishful thinking I can hear the sleigh bells ring Almost taste the pie mama's baking It's Christmas Eve There's a candle in the window There's a flame against the night There's a candle in the window, it's like God's perfect light Now it don't take lots of money, hmm, to know what riches are Just a candle in the window and Christmas in your heart Wherever the years may take me, no matter how far I go There's gonna be a candle burning It's always nice to know That it don't take a lot of money, oh, to know what riches are A simple candle in the window Oh, and Christmas in your heart In your heart, your heart Just a candle in the window Just a candle in the window
