I'm looking into a window
Of a year that I loved
I see that Maxie is sleeping
I cannot wake him up
What is that guy dreaming of?
Is it the same as today?
Does he contemplate decisions?
Is he aware of his fate?
Let's sync up tracks and push play
And then go out for a walk
David Bowie says five years
That's all we got
Within five years he'd be gone
What is that guy dreaming of?
And I would cry to that song
You know I still put on changes
When changes are going on
Cooking breakfast at dawn
For my math teacher's son
I just moved back to my hometown
When he would nap I'd write songs
Andre brought their vibraphone
I never had heard them play
Except along to the theme song
Of Grey's Anatomy
Soon we would tour with the tapes
Recorded one at a time
And give them to all our old friends
Remain a part of their lives
When you were afraid to fly
But still you did anyway
To travel along the east coast
And watch all the leaves change
And that familiar face
That makes your heart overflowing
And flow
With the love you take with you
Wherever you go
Don't let me drink for loco
It always makes me cry
And then I ramble to strangers
And tell them I want to die
This is a beautiful story
Beautiful life
Don't waste your past with regret
Don't waste your present with blindness
Don't shroud your future in mist
I'm looking into a window
Of a year I will love
I see that Maxie is sleeping
I will not wake him up
The past is not a past
You've gotta hold it right to your chest
Because the love you've been shown
Will guide the way home
The past is not a past
The past is not a past
You've gotta hold it right to your chest
You've gotta hold it right to your chest
Because the love you've been shown
Will guide the way home
The past is not a past
Don't waste your past with discontent
Will guide the way home
Don't 02
The past is not a past
Don't 02
Please winter in the past
Thank you.
