Something about other people's houses When I look through their windows at night They've got everything figured out No worries it's all peace and quiet Anyway that's how it see it Here I am on the sidewalk freezing to death Wishing we never moved here after all I miss my hometown My heart stayed my body left I'm still here by the pond My hair grows long But I stay the same And I know the outline Of every tree in the forest And on the other side Of the river the longing runs Deep in my veins Deep in my veins Deep in my veins Today someone in the street smiled At me and I almost cried Middle of the night I'm awake and it seems That's when I do all my worst thinking Nightmares come alive when I can't sleep And though I do love a good sad story I wish I never moved here after all I miss my hometown My heart stayed my body left I'm still here by the pond I lied when I said I love best The city nights And I know the outline Of every tree in the forest And on the other side Of the river the longing runs Deep in my veins Deep in my veins Deep in my veins Deep in my veins
