Lyrics

[00:11.671] There's a boy throwing rocks at my window
[00:18.259] Sitting on a bench down below
[00:21.523] And he says Come and spend some time
[00:30.070] With me beneath the washing line
[00:34.022] And he looks as handsome as the night
[00:40.823] Hands in his pockets his face in daylight
[00:46.735] So I let him in
[00:52.385] And I take his hand
[00:58.037] And I do my best to understand
[01:06.137] Oh I I do the best that I can
[01:13.576] We lay down and look out my window
[01:20.352] Outside there was a distant glow and
[01:25.652] We whisper every word wildly
[01:31.651] Talk of all the things we're gonna do
[01:36.169] And he kisses me on the eye
[01:42.845] Out the window we seem to fly
[01:47.245] 'Cause I let him in
[01:54.745] And I take his hand
[02:00.347] And I do my best to understand
[02:08.157] Oh I I do the best that I can
[02:38.764] There's a nightbird singing at my window
[02:44.958] The bench is empty down below and I lay
[02:50.436] Awake to hear the open gate
[02:56.401] But he don't come around no more so
[03:02.059] I pretend to let him in
[03:07.511] I pretend to take his hand
[03:13.249] I imagine that I understand
[03:21.600] Oh I I do the best that I can
[03:27.100] My my my my I understand
