Through The Window

(Kevin Mileski)
2005
Kevin Mileski
Looking through the window into a cloudy day.
Where whispers of autumn pass
Where the flowers you once planted
beneath the browning grass

And all the lives you spent on waiting
and all the lies and nights you gave
You don't wake up every morning
all the while you slept.

Don't say to take me to the day then when we first did meet
That's the time for me that I start to see
All the lives I've had captured all in time
All the lives I could lead
And still I feel, my mind growing real
And now I say turn the night to day
why don't we stay to the better way
We couldn't find it all so many times
the better way
Then why don't we stay, turn the night to day?

Oh you'd better wait, the sound from up above
Wouldn't like to be so much in love
Waking up every evening, going out every day.
We'll stay there one day.

Don't say to take me to the day then when we first did meet
That's the time for me that I start to see
All the lives I've had captured all in time
All the lives I could lead
And still I feel, my mind growing real.
And now I say turn the night to day
why don't we stay to the better way
We couldn't find it oh so many times -
the better way
Then why don't we stay, turn the night to day?
