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
