On the cold nights alone
Not a person to keep me warm
Sitting by the window 
Watching as cars drive by
For no one sees me

Waiting for a hand to reach out
To pull me from this cold window
A hand that spreads warmth
That keeps the cold away

For as I wait in the cold
There is a longing to be seen
No longer to be invisible to all
To have their eyes gaze at me

There is this place I want to go
That is far away from this cold window
It is warm
Full of things I don’t know
With others that see me

What was it called?
Oh it’s called a home
Who will take me there?
This place called home
A place far away 
From this cold window
