You think you know me
Just because you know my name
You think you see me
'Cause you've seen every line on my face
You want to want me
Just beacause I say that I want you
But does it matter
If anything I'm saying is the truth

You need somebody
Somebody to hold on to
But this ain't the movies And we ain't heroes

Staring at your window
With a suitcase in my hand
The streetlights buzz as the cars roll by
And the moon don't give a damn
My boots just keep on walkin'
But my heart don't understand
Why I'm staring at your window
With a suitcase in my hand

I said I want you
But when we woke up one of us was crying
You rolled over
And all you said was - "Man, I think I'm dying"
Our song is over
This band of gold has been feeling like a noose
You place your bets
'Cause no one thinks they'll lose


Staring at your window
With a suitcase in my hand
The streetlights buzz as the cars roll by
And the moon don't give a damn
My boots just keep on walkin'
But my heart don't understand
Why I'm staring at your window...

The light of love can blind you
'Til you cover up your eyes
And you try to find the reason
Not to say goodbye
It's the curse of every sailor
Standing on dry land
Staring at your window
With a suitcase in my hand

The night is fading
Like my old tattoo
A heart and a dagger
That says "Forever"


Staring at your window
With a suitcase in my hand
The streetlights buzz as the cars roll by
And the moon don't give a damn
My boots just keep on walkin'
But my heart don't understand
Why I'm staring at your window
With a suitcase in my hand
