The Window

by Sam Rowe
(Columbus)

You look out the window and what do you see?
Except for a better version of me?
You did the right where I did the wrong
So, Satan's the one that wrote this song
I'm here soaking regret in the air
I died, thinking you never did care,
You wish you would've made the right choices
Now it's too late and you here the voices
Saying all you should've said
You never knew I woould end up dead
If I could have one last moment with you
I would kill to let you know I love you, too
What I would've done to make that call?
To know how much you cared after all.
If you were here, would you be proud?
But now you're lost in a ghostly shroud.
You were the one that taught me right
I realize now, that you were always there
Day and night
Now you lay awake in bed,
With thoughts of me in your head
Why didn't you mean that four letter word?
I'm sorry now that the relationship had slurred
I was so wrong and now I see,
You didn't want anything from me.
So, as you lay there seeing me now,
You only wish you could've meant it somehow.
Even though the call you awaited never came,
I did and do love you, all the same
Now you only wish you could've seen the light,
As you look out the window on this fateful night.
