lyrics
when I go to bed at night
I hear your voice through my window
but when your voice isn't there
I can't fall asleep at all, love
wander out on frozen ground
and now the town has all been closed down
and you're not here
but now there's nothing left to fear
when I've done something wrong
your quiet whisper in my ear
and you're not fine don't tell me fine
I can see right through your clear windowpanes
the sound you hear when you're alone
is not my voice it's just the dial tone
and I'm not there
sometimes it seems that you don't care
at all
why don't you care
it just seems like that's not fair!
you're standing there
ignoring truth while sirens blare
why can't you find
it in yourself to spend some time
with me?
I hear your voice through my window
but when your voice isn't there
I can't fall asleep at all, love
wander out on frozen ground
and now the town has all been closed down
and you're not here
but now there's nothing left to fear
when I've done something wrong
your quiet whisper in my ear
and you're not fine don't tell me fine
I can see right through your clear windowpanes
the sound you hear when you're alone
is not my voice it's just the dial tone
and I'm not there
sometimes it seems that you don't care
at all
why don't you care
it just seems like that's not fair!
you're standing there
ignoring truth while sirens blare
why can't you find
it in yourself to spend some time
with me?
