things
Darin Bobby Lyrics

Ev'ry night I sit here by my window (window)
Every night, I sit by my window, looking out at the world outside.

Starin' at the lonely avenue (avenue)
And staring out at the empty street below, feeling lonely.

Watching lovers holdin' hands 'n' laughin' (laughin')
I watch couples on the street holding hands and laughing, reminiscing about my past relationships.

And thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
I think about all the things my ex and I used to do together, which I miss terribly.

(Thinkin' of things) like a walk in the park
I think about things we used to do, like taking a relaxing walk in the park together.

(Things) like a kiss in the dark
Things like stealing a kiss in the dark, or creating intimate moments with each other.

(Things) like a sailboat ride (yeah-yeah)
Things like a peaceful sailboat ride, just the two of us enjoying each other's company.

What about the night we cried?
I also think about the times we experienced hardships, like the night we cried together.

Things like a lover's vow
I reminisce about promises and deep commitments to each other as lovers.

Things that we don't do now
All of these things are painful reminders that we no longer do together, and it makes me sad.

Memories are all I have to cling to (cling to)
All I have left are my memories of us together, and the lingering feeling of wanting to hold onto something that is already gone.

And heartaches are the friends I'm talkin' to (talkin' to)
I find myself talking to my own heartaches, which have become my only companions in this lonely time.

When I'm not thinkin' of-a just how much I loved you (love you)
Even when I'm not actively thinking about how much I loved you, these memories persist and haunt me.

I still can hear the jukebox softly playin' (playin')
I can still hear the music playing in my mind, a faint reminder of the times we shared and the music that we enjoyed together.

And the face I see each day belongs to you (belongs to you)
Every day, I see your face in the memories that flood my mind and the places where we once spent time together.

Though there's not a single sound and there's nobody else around
Even though there's no one around and it's completely silent, I'm still consumed by my thoughts of you and our past.

Well, it's just me thinkin' of the things we used to do
I'm alone with my thoughts, thinking about all the things we used to do together - and how I wish we could still do them now.

And the heartaches are the friends I'm talkin' to
I'm talking to the pain and heartache that have become my constant companions on this lonely journey.

Ya got me thinkin' 'bout the things we used to do
All of these memories and thoughts have me thinking about you and the things we used to do together.

Starin' at the lonely avenue
And as I sit here alone, staring aimlessly out the window, the avenue below seems just as bleak and lonely as I feel.
