Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Dust on the window
Coffee gone cold on the sill
Newspaper folded, yesterday’s headlines
Same old ache, same old thrill
Neighbor’s TV hums through the plaster
Train on the tracks far away
I trace your name in the condensation
Watch it fade, slip away
[Chorus]
Midnight window glow
City breathing soft and slow
If you were here, would you stay, would you go?
I still talk to your shadow in the glass
Midnight window glow
Every streetlight feels like home
I’m just learning how to hold
What I can’t have
[Verse 2]
Ash in the tray, slow spiral
Jacket on the back of your chair
Record needle clicks in the quiet
Like it knows you’re not there
I pour two fingers in an old chipped tumbler
One for the hurt, one for you
Let it burn straight down to the secrets
I never said, but you knew
[Chorus]
Midnight window glow
City breathing soft and slow
If you were here, would you stay, would you go?
I still talk to your shadow in the glass
Midnight window glow
Every streetlight feels like home
I’m just learning how to hold
What I can’t have
[Bridge]
[Violin solo, slow and aching, over held chords]
I hear you in the quiet between the cars
I see you in the steam from the vent
Every little echo in this tired old room
Feels like love that never quite left
[Chorus]
Midnight window glow
City breathing soft and slow
If you were here, would you stay, would you go?
I still talk to your shadow in the glass
Midnight window glow
Every streetlight feels like home
I’m just learning how to hold
What I can’t have
