Lyrics

ROSE IN THE WINDOW
(Dan Navarro – Preston Sturges)

I’ll give up my sadness, I promise
I’ll give up my anger, I swear
I wasn’t walking in darkness on purpose
Just had no reason to care
I burned my old papers this morning
The romance of just how I fell
The friends that I made
Who all faded away
In that Hollywood heartbreak hotel

I’ll put a rose in the window
So you’ll know just who you’re looking for
Cuz the searchlights and sirens
Are easy to ignore
I’ll put a rose in the window
Growing out of my crown of thorns
Look for the rose in the window
Come knock on my door

There was a star that I followed
So brilliant, so widely renowned
I wouldn’t listen to no one
Followed her all the way down
But a man is no more than what he believes
The words that he whispers at night
Forgive yourself
If you’re wrong in your choosing
Choose again at first light

I’ll put a rose in the window
So you’ll know just who you’re looking for
Cuz the searchlights and sirens
Are easy to ignore
I’ll put a rose in the window
Growing out of my crown of thorns
Look for the rose in the window
Come knock on my door

No questions asked
I don’t care where you’ve been
Come knock on my door
And I’ll be yours again, yeah yeah yeah

REPEAT CHORUS
