Lyrics
i see you
you see me eighteenth floor across the street sometimes you dance sometimes you read
tv dinners fall asleep
>
do i ever cross your mind
through your window in the sky when you forget to close the blinds
so do i
>
i see you
check your phone wash the dishes fold the clothes sometimes you stay up and get stoned
but you always sleep alone
>
do i ever cross your mind
through your window in the sky when you forget to close the blinds
so do i
