lock all the windows

there was time for the laughter and time for the rain

time for the people who don't know my name

time for everything

i know it's true and i know that i should have had more time for you

so

lock all the windows. close all the doors and don't let me go out runnin' no more

lock all the windows. close all the doors and don't let me go out runnin' no more

but there so many places that i've never been. so many faces a-callin' me friend

l.a. is pretty and new york is cold and chicago is just an old story i've told

so

lock all the windows. close all the doors and don't let me go out runnin' no more

lock all the windows. close all the doors and don't let me go out runnin' no more

but the hands of the clock keep on goin' around and the calendar pages keep fallin' on down

come follow me

then

wherever i go and when we'll get home here

i really don't know

we'll lock all the windows. close all the doors and we'll go out runnin' just like before
