lyrics

I sat at my window and watched the rain 
With each breath the frost came to life, then died on the windowpane
My breath came to life and died on the windowpane
And when the storm passed, I knew it was time
To walk out the door and leave another home behind

And then I gazed upward
And studied the skyline
I wondered who was working late that night
My mind and I wandered
Sometimes together
And I counted the street lamps that I walked by

My hands are shoved in my pockets, I pretend I'm James Dean
I swear it's not for effect, this is not the final scene
I've just lingered too long, there's somewhere else I should be
“You can't keep haunting this town," the wind whispers to me

And now I gaze upward
And study the skyline
I wonder who is working late that night
My mind and I wander
Sometimes together
And I count the street lamps that I walk by
The lights that once led me
The words that consoled me
I swear that I'm thankful for them all
But with no stars to guide me,
No voices to lead me,
I'll follow my shadow on the wall

And wherever I'm going, I'll leave there someday
'Cuz if you try to go somewhere, you're trying to go away

And then I'll gaze upward
And study the skyline
I'll wonder who is working late that night
My mind and I'll wander
Sometimes together
And I'll count the street lamps that I walk by
The lights that once led me
The words that consoled me
I swear that I'm thankful for them all
But with no stars to guide me,
No voices to lead me,
I'll follow my shadow on the wall
