Chris Hadfield Window of My Mind lyrics

It was one am when this bus left the station
It sure has been a long time headed west
For my life just couldn't stand more complication
I had to do what I knew was best

And a morning on a greyhound isn't pretty
The sunrise cuts into the dreams of night
Long shadows make the shape of some city
The bus keeps rumbling till it's out of sight

Through the window of this bus I see the prairies
Through the window of this bus I see the early morning dew
But it's when I close my eyes that I see clearly
Through the window of my mind I see you

(ooooo)

It's 9 am when we pull into ___
Stiffly climb out down onto the ground
I hail a cab, the last part of this travel
Not sure if I'm lost or I am found


Through the window of this cab I see the mountains
Through the window of this cab I see the early morning dew
But it's when I close my eyes that I see clearly
Through the window of my mind I see you

(ooooo)

And the cabbie pulls up slowly like I told him
I look up and I see you and I cry
You're curled up on the porch, two cups of coffee
And a smile that looks about a mile wide

Through the window of my mind I see the prairies
Through the window of my mind I see the early morning dew
Cuz it's when I close my eyes that I see clearly
Through the window of my mind I see you
Through the window of my mind I see you

(ooooo)
