about

A song of longing and voyeurism and "what if"

lyrics

Alone I saw you on the patio that night
You had no drink and your face betrayed your cries
Your eyes were sore and your lips were chewed and tight
And there I watched you from the safety of inside

I wondered what could be going through your mind
For all I know you had lost your heart tonight
I wish I knew you and could make it all alright
For now I’ll stand here and fantasize your life

And I, I wake up every morning with
Thoughts of all the things I did and could’ve done
And at night I’ll dream of what it could’ve been
Fantasize a life with all I could’ve done

And then I saw him come out and brush your hair
You turn away to pretend you didn’t care
He gets fed up as you start to walk away
He slams his drink he can't find the words to say

He grabs your shoulders and then you start to cry
My blood is rushed and my hands are closed and tight
Finally he laughs and he bolts back inside
He walks right past me and leaves into the night

And so you stayed there on the patio alone
And for a while I thought I’d join you in the cold
You come inside and I try to catch your eye
You walk right past me and leave into the night
