Singing From The Windows lyrics - Dave Matthews Band

When the war is over

And we go back to every day, every day

Will it be the same again

When you've been turned inside out and outside in?

Singing from the windows

Shadows on the wall, the way they dance

Not much of nothing

But look at this fire burning bright

Look at how the children play

None of us know what's to come tomorrow

But I'm not going out today

So dance with me like the time we've got is borrowed

Singing from the windows

Sirens in the dark, where are you going?

Pretend that it's nothing

But look at this fire burning wild

This is how we keep holding on

All days, all day long

But sometimes things just fall apart

No matter how we try, they won't stop

Singing from the windows

Something outside that I don't know

When the war is over

Picking up the pieces of every day

Memories in picture frames

Trying to put the inside out and the outside in

Singing from the windows

Walking down the hall, nowhere to go

Be good to see you

But I suppose when it's all said and done

This is how we keep holding on

All the days, all day long

But sometimes things just come apart

No matter how we try, they won't stop

Singing from the windows

Voices outside and no one knows

Singing from the windows

We'll get going again when the war is over
