Bon Jovi & Jon Bon Jovi - Staring At Your Window With A Suitcase In My Hand lyrics

rate me

J. Bon Jovi

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 beacause I say that I want you

But does it matter if anything I'm saying is the truth

You need somebody, somebody to hold on to

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 my heart don't understand

Why I'm staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand

I said 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 goodbye

It's the curse of every sailor standing on dry land

Staring at your window with a suitcase in my hand

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
