Warm Breath On A Winter Window Songtext
Warm breath on a winter window

He writes her name, on the glass, it's Tuesday morning

In a quiet little street, in a home kept tidy and neat

Is a messy room where two tangled bodies wake from sleep

He puts his hand on her face, and gently begins to trace
The outline of her lips, she whispers good morning

There's a need for spoken word but he thinks, in silence their actions are heard

Share a pillow, stare so close the focus blurs



Not an on the spot romantic, He found it hard to touch

Couldn't measure a feeling but when asked he said, ?I love you very much?

In an attempt to keep her happy, he held so much away

Though he promised himself he'd tell her all of it someday



Morning light pours in through a north-facing window
The silence is broken, she pushes play on the stereo

And as music fills the room it fills the gaps

Yet another distraction, from talking bout mishaps and things

As distance grows, confusion of what to do

He retreats into himself, thinks that there he'll find a clue

Whilst neither one speaks up, and they both hurt inside

She doesn't do much to help but he's the one that's fucked it up this time



Not an on the spot romantic, He found it hard to touch

Couldn't measure a feeling but when asked he said ?I love you very much?

He told her his accounts of heartache, and how it made him feel

Happiness in honesty, something real



In a desperate search both night and day

It only gets harder to find the words to say

He knows in his heart, he could love her til the end

If only from the start, he had been more open

The image of himself in the reflection

Says the clocks ticking down, if you want her, it's got to happen

He looks into himself, he stares into his heart

He takes his wants and needs, he splits the two apart



I'll run back

I'll hold you in my arms

You won't leave feeling empty next time

I'll tell you everything

And that I want to go home

And we'll walk home together next time
