Open Your Window

(album: The State Of Things - 2007)

We'll be together in the springtime (No, no, no)
We'll be together in the springtime (No, no)
We'll be together in the springtime

She goes away today
He gives her a photo to help her remember
History of Art BA
It's alright 'cause she's back in late November
But he knows not of who she is mixing
By Christmas, she's lying
No calling, she tricks him

So he goes up to stay
He don't like her friends and he hasn't heard of Nietzsche
She seems so far away
And the distance is further each time he meets her
Who's the bloke on the wall
Next to Ringo and Paul?
"It's Che", she says, "have you seen him before?"

Open your window
Won't you let her out?
Wave goodbye to the butterfly
The one you can't be without
Open your window
Won't you set her free?
Where you are isn't where she's at
Or the place she's meant to be

He thinks they've grown apart
Now she uses big words like 'surreal' and 'genre'
And I know it breaks his heart
There's thousands of fellas that like it before ya
Does the bloke on the wall
Next to Ringo and Paul
Mean she's some kind of expert on guerrilla war?

Open your window
Won't you let her out?
Wave goodbye to the butterfly
The one you can't be without
Open your window
Won't you set her free?
Where you are isn't where she's at
Or the place she's meant to be
Open your window
Won't you let her out?
Wave goodbye to the butterfly
The one you can't be without

We'll be together in the springtime
We'll be together in the springtime
We'll be together in the springtime
You and I
And we'll be together in the springtime
And the sun will shine
And we'll be together in the springtime
You and I
Yes we'll be together in the springtime
