Jon Bon Jovi Staring At Your Window Lyrics

Staring At Your Window Lyrics

You think you know me just because you know my name 
You think you see me 'cause you've seen every line on my face 
You want to want me just because I say that I want you 
But does it matter if anything I'm saying is the truth 

You need somebody, somebody to hold onto 
But this ain't the movies, and we ain't heroes 

Staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand 
The streetlights buzz as the cars roll by and the moon don't give a damn 
My boots just keep on walkin', but a heart don't understand 
Why I'm staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand 

I said that I want you, but when we woke up one of us was crying 
You rolled over and all you said was, "Man, I think I'm dying" 
Our song is over, this band of gold has been feeling like a noose 
You place your bets 'cause no one thinks they'll lose 

Staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand 
The streetlights buzz as the cars roll by and the moon don't give a damn 
My boots just keep on walkin', but my heart don't understand 
Why I'm staring at your window 

The light of love can blind you 'til you cover up your eyes 
And you try to find the reason not to say good bye 
It's the curse of every sailor standing on dry land 
Staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand 

[Guitar solo]

The night is fading like my old tattoo 
A heart and a dagger that says "Forever" 

Staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand 
The streetlights buzz as the cars roll by and the moon don't give a damn 
I'm getting tired of talkin', even I don't understand 
Why I'm staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand
