Watched You Out My Window 02:36
lyrics
watched you out my window every single day I watched you but you never looked my way I watched you out my window and I hoped and I prayed that you'd be my girl someday watched you out my window when the sun goes down watched you and I never made a sound I watched you out my window but you never turned around even when my house was burning down I watched you out my window in the wind and the rain I watched you and I shouted out your name I watched you out my window until the nighttime came and all I could see was my reflection in the window pane I watch you out my window as you walk on by I watch you and I try to catch your eye I watched you out my window and I hang my head and cry 'cause you just keep on walking right on by

pluck the stars out from the sky sit alone and cry people passing evil eyes as you wander by grimace when they call your name and say it's such a shame hands are reaching out for you it's driving you insane turn away turn away you're in this world but you're not of it they'll show you symbols in a box and fill your bags with rocks your flustered fingers feigning fair from picking through the locks but you honing your intelligence and gathering your sense living off the wasted ends on your side of the fence turn away turn away you're in this world but you're not of it it's letting out the broken dreams it's breaking at the beams it's dragging down the kings and queens it's bursting at the seams but none of that's on your side of the fence none of that makes any difference turn away turn away you're in this world but you're not of it
