Dancing at My Window - The Wooden Sky

They were dancing at my window

When you awoke to me and said

You’d been wondering what it meant

To have these dreams where you were dead

Under cover of the night

You took shelter in my mind

Hung your name over the fire

You were lovely dear, but hard to find

Drifting further from the light

There were signs on every corner

Was the last month of the year

I’d been struggling to find my voice

When I heard your steps draw near

You cried out against the night

I should’ve run to you

But how could I?

I was lost most of the time

Yeah but I got bored and left you

There lying on your side

Saving all the pieces you could find

Sometimes it gets so dark

I wonder how I’ll find the light

So I lay back and I try to put it out of mind

I remember feeling older

Found it hard to see myself

Guess I found some place to hide

Watch the whole thing crumble down

You cried out against the night

I should’ve run to you

But how could I?

I was lost most of the time

Yeah but I got bored and left you

There lying on your side

Saving all the pieces you could find

Sometimes it gets so dark

I wonder how I’ll find the light

So I lay back and try to put it out of mind
