[Verse 1] From up on the hill the whole city glows A thousand little windows all looking much the same Come a little closer one light stays on late Someone’s waiting for a phone call someone’s whispering a name [Chorus] Somebody, specifically is awake behind that light Missing someone holding someone trying to make it through the night From far away we blur together close enough, we don’t Somebody, specifically is living where you won’t [Verse 2] A crowd becomes a movement a neighborhood, a shade But every door you pass has a thousand things unsaid Someone laughs too loudly someone hasn’t slept Someone keeps a promise no one else remembers yet [Bridge] Distance makes us simple Come closer We’re not. [Final Chorus] Somebody, specifically is awake behind that light Not an example not a symbol just a life From far away we blur together close enough, we don’t Somebody, specifically Someone you could know.
