  • I see a window and all I can think about is
    Do you wanna fight with me
    I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
    So do you wanna fight with me

    An I been starin' at this window for the past eleven hours
    Thinkin' about all the opportunities this window has to offer
    From the twenty third floor to the filing cabinet east Manhattan to
    [FDR is beautiful ?] an I'mm watchin' all the cars passin'
    An a couple stars twinkle so I started laughin'
    And a couple walked by an they looked so happy
    I booked this room at this place called the last resort
    All my bags are packed I got my jacket an my passport
    A first class ticket to the after life you dig me
    Now is you is or is you ain't with me
    An I fully understand if you got other plans
    But I can't see you hand in hand with another man
    I been on autopilot since we last spoke
    And I don't want to board this flight on a bad note
    I want you think about it but either way I'm goin'
    An if you really love me then here's the chance to show it


    I see a window and all I can think about is
    Do you wanna fight with me
    I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
    So do you wanna fight with me

    We'll live forever, they will write a novel about us

    She looked me dead in the eyes
    And took me by the hand
    Kissed me on the cheek an said baby I understand
    You don't have to leave plus I'm scared of heights
    So just put down your luggage forget about this flight
    You an I you know we been through a lot of things
    But it's no reason to start trippin' an arguing
    She said you are my king I place no one above you
    And I dont have to board a plane for me to show you
    An all this talk about the after life is kinda creepy
    So lets just go lay down and talk I'm gettin' kinda sleepy
    I kinda smiled and we both walked to the window I pulled it shut
    And started staring at the sky I wiped a couple tears away
    An then we looked at each other an
    I could see the starts twinkle in her eyes
    I told her about the couple I seen earlier
    She said I'm sure they're cute but they're not you and I

    I see a window and all I can think about is
    Do you wanna fight with me
    I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
    So do you wanna fight with me

    We'll live forever, they will write a novel about us

    I see a window and all I can think about is
    Do you wanna fight with me
    I know it sounds crazy but I can't find solid ground
    So do you wanna fight with me

    We'll live forever, they will write a novel about us Writer/s: ANDRE LYON, DISASHI LUMUMBA-KASONGO, MARCELLO VALENZANO, MATTHEW MCGINLEY, TRAVIS MCCOY
