Lyrics
Face in the window in the night
There's a face visible in the nighttime through a window
Caught for a second by the light
Briefly illuminated by light before disappearing
Ashes of memories still aglow
Remnants of past memories still burning or glowing
Only for you
These memories are exclusively for the person being addressed
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Images and representations seen previously
Visions in blue
Mental images or fantasies seen in a bluish tone
Read while the letters still remain
Reading or understanding while the written communication remains
Sip from the wine of youth again
Revisiting youthful experiences, possibly through nostalgia
Oaths made in silence still return
Promises or commitments made silently revisited
Only for you
Specifically for the addressee, singularly intended
Cast like a shroud you're clutching on
Enveloped or covered in a manner similar to a burial cloth
Visions in blue
Imagery or fantasies again in a bluish hue
Catch aimless smiles from passers by
Noticing random or purposeless smiles from passersby
Blistered and broken in reply
Responding to these with emotional pain or damage
Breath seems to mist the hazy view
One's breath causing a misty or unclear view
Only for you
Again, specifically for the person being addressed
Tears coat your lifeless eyes with dew
Tears covering eyes that lack vitality, possibly implying emotional numbness
Visions in blue
Reiteration of mental images or fantasies in blue
Visions in blue
Repeating the idea of these bluish visions
Ashes of memories still aglow
Reiteration of memories still burning or glowing
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Repetition of previously seen images and representations
Ashes of memories still aglow
Continued mention of burning or glowing memories
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Repetition of images and representations previously witnessed
Ashes of memories still aglow
Continued emphasis on memories that are still burning or glowing
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Reiteration of past images and representations
Face in the window in the night
Restating the visual of a face in the night through a window
Caught for a second by the light
A momentary glimpse of the face caught in the light
Ashes of memories still aglow
Recalling memories that are still burning or glowing, solely for the addressee
Only for you
Exclusively for the person being addressed, reiteration of past images
Portraits and pictures you once saw
Revisiting past visual representations and images
Visions in blue
Summarizing the ongoing mental imagery or fantasies in a bluish tone
