Tapestries of black and gold they're crying Looking through the windows I am watching you You as you go by You count every word I say Seven verses to magnify Drop the feathers you will never fly Over again you might find a way Turn on a wave of fire

Won't you let me know? If you love me Was a long and dark December So if you love me From the rooftops I remember There was snow Clearly I remember From the windows they were watching

Where was I before you came around I was drifting, no place to call home Without you lovin' me You give me someone to believe in Staring out the window Watching the night turn into day It's 4 in the morning I've got so many things to say I've been out

Tapestries of black and gold they're crying Looking through the windows I am watching you You as you go by You count every word I say Seven verses to magnify Drop the feathers you will never fly Over again you might find a way Turn on a wave of fire

I took a heavenly ride through our silence Where were you when I was burned and broken While the days slipped by from my window watching And where were you when I was hurt and I was helpless 'Cause the things you say and the things you do surround me

I took a heavenly ride through our silence Where were you when I was burned and broken While the days slipped by from my window watching And where were you when I was hurt and I was helpless 'Cause the things you say and the things you do surround me

Go back to your trailer Girl we ain’t friends we’re just neighbors There ain’t nothing to see here Keep your two cents on your side of the fence You say that you’re watching the birds out the window Well I’ve got a bird you can watch You ain’t gotta act
