80 windows

Clusters of people talking secretly to each other.
In a bar you cannot talk openly to anyone you don´t already know.
4 year olds, they have got the right idea: they jump the line and hit it on the nose.
When we sit and we get quiet, then we look and see who´s home.
Across the way there are 80 windows we can see,
It´s christmastime and they all have the same tree.
You tell me the patterns you already see,
I wonder if they see us in our bed.
You said you like the one with the father who always eats with his son.
I like the rows of lights because they keep me calm.
I feel far away from you. So what else is new?
The moon is closer to the sun than I am to anyone.
