 here we are,
 in our first floor tiny apartment in the back
 we can never see the sun
 facing out
 to just another stack of bricks
 and they too, for someone else,
 must weigh a ton
 
 there are times
 when i wish i had never come to this
 God-forsaken place
 and in my head
 i plan our escape
 and i see the agreement in your face
 
 well roll the windows open wide
 in our car and speed up the side streets
 til we make it cross the bridge
 kiss a cloud and wave goodbye
 shooting out across the plains
 open road for open minds
 and open hearts, rolling windows
 open wide
 
 
 all the images
 from these last couple months
 have made it hard for us to talk
 about anything at all
 more on edge,
 longer silences, shorter fuses
 quick to snap, quick to judge
 when what we need is to recall
 
 rolling windows open wide ...
 
 
 now it is true
 that we are here for a reason, each our own
 some to accomplish, some to help,
 some just here to learn
 but what if we
 never see
 what it is we're here to be
 never catch, never spark, never burn
 
 well roll the windows open wide ...
 
 here comes the sun, little darlin’
 here comes that sun
