about

Kitchen Window is the first of five tracks to be released in 2019 by Gus White. The song embodies a spirit of personal reflection, exploring themes of memory, love and loss

lyrics

You danced in the evenings
And let down your blonde hair
I walked in the mornings
And I wished you were there

You were looking up to me
But I looked above
I was searching for meaning
And you were searching for love

I thought that if I showed you
I could change you, that was wrong
And now I see your face
Through my kitchen window

Out in the wild like a child
Living again by the light of the moon
Seeking a life ten miles from your mind
Something I’ll never find

We were both growing tired
Of the secrets we kept
You’d sneak me in after midnight
And I’d lay wide awake while you slept

You never followed
When I pulled at your sleeves
I’m only thinking of you I said
But I was thinking of me

I thought that if I showed you
I could change you, that was wrong
And now I see your face
Through my kitchen window

Out in the wild like a child
Living again by the light of the moon
Seeking a life ten miles from your mind
Something I’ll never find

Now I see you face
Through this open window
I see you as you are
You’re a shadow in the rain
And there you shall remain
A flickering of light
Forgotten in the day
And remembered in the night
