Lyrics
[verse]
I'm sitting by the window where the snow comes down,
Waiting on a phone call that won't make a sound.
I know the answer long before I ask,
But my heart keeps whispering, hoping it will last.
[chorus]
Don't know why, don't know what for,
I'm holding onto shadows outside my door.
Don't know why I leave this window wide,
Open for the wind and a brand new sunrise.
[verse]
Coffee's going cold, the record just spins,
No needle, no sound, just the quiet within.
I've dreamed up a hundred thousand roads to roam,
But none of them lead me back to your home.
[chorus]
Don't know why, don't know what for,
I'm holding onto shadows outside my door.
Don't know why I leave this window wide,
Open for the wind and a brand new sunrise.
[bridge]
Maybe it's only a habit that stays,
Maybe it's memory playing its games.
But still I whisper before I sleep
Words that were ours, ours to keep.
[chorus]
Don't know why, don't know what for,
I'm holding onto shadows outside my door.
Don't know why I leave this window wide,
Open for the wind and a brand new sunrise.
