Come To My Window

Melissa Etheridge


[CHORUS]

Come to my window
Crawl inside, wait by the light
of the moon
Come to my window
I'll be home soon

I would dial the numbers
Just to listen to your breath
I would stand inside my hell
And hold the hand of death
You don't know how far I'd go
To ease this precious ache
You don't know how much I'd give
Or how much I can take

Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Just to reach you

[CHORUS]

Keeping my eyes open
I cannot afford to sleep
Giving away promises
I know that I can't keep
Nothing fills the blackness
That has seeped into my chest
I need you in my blood
I am forsaking all the rest
Just to reach you
Just to reach you
Oh to reach you

[CHORUS]

I don't care what they think
I don't care what they say
What do they know about this
love anyway

[CHORUS]

Yes, I know what the song is *really* about, but here I see it as a man/woman relationship song. We all know who that man and woman is, don’t we. Mulder would do anything to get to Scully, for she is his soul. She fills the blackness inside, soothes his demons, is his only comfort. Does she have any idea how important she is to him? Okay, one word sums it all up - soulmate. Need I say more?
