[Verse 1]

Something feels so strange tonight

It's not wrong but it's just not right

Some hidden complications

Fill me with hesitation


[Verse 2]

And it gets so dark in here

I can't see through doubts and fears

Walled in by expectation

I need a deviation


[Pre-Chorus]

Change in perspective, alternative view

To help me see clearly, observe something new


[Chorus]

All I want is a window to look through

All I need is a window to look through

It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway

All I want is a window to look through

All I need is a window to look through

It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway


[Verse 3]

Outside the world's so dangerous

It's hard to find someone to trust

Fills me with reservation

Drives me into hibernation

I watch what's going on

But I don't want to belong

Leave me in my introspection

Safely behind protection


[Chorus]

All I want is a window to look through

All I need is a window to look through

It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway

All I want is a window to look through

All I need is a window to look through

It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway


[Bridge]

Looking through windows at the world

(Looking through windows at the world)

Safe behind windows from the world

(Safe behind windows from the world)

Watching my window world go by

(Just watching my window world go by)

Without my window who am I

(Without my window who am I)


[Chorus]

All I want is a window to look through

All I need is a window to look through

It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway

All I want is a window to look through

All I need is a window to look through

It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway


[Outro]

(All I want)

All I want is a window to look through

(All I want)

All I need is a window to look through

(All I need)

It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway

All I want is a window to look through

All I need is a window to look through

It's the only thing that I really wanna do anyway
