I wish you wouldn’t sleep that way
Just like you did yesterday
In between your cleanest sheets
Cause I lay alone in mine
Wishing I could stop my fingernails from ripping them apart
And it’s so hard to breathe tonight
And know that you are away from here
Cause here used to be right outside my bedroom window
You would always peek through
Hoping to see my dreams taking place
Cause you filled them with your grace
I won’t ever forget the day
You told me my window would no longer be marked with your evening’s fingerprints
Cause you clung too hard to the glass
Until it all shattered and sliced your dignity to die
Before you even learned to fly
I wish we could just go back
To the nights you would watch my dreams take place
But now you’ve lost all your grace
And I’m so out of place
I wish we could go back to the nights my window radiated
With the light of the stars you hung on my ceiling
Lit, and kissed my window goodnight
You hung the stars and kissed my window goodnight
Kissed my window
Oh, you kissed my window goodnight
