Living Room Lyrics

my windows look into your living room,
where i spend the afternoon on top of you.
i wonder what it is
that i did to make you move in
across away from me.

i hope i never figure out who broke your heart.
and if i DO,
if i DO.

i'd spend all night losing sleep.
i'd spend the night
and i'd lose my mind.
and i'd spend the night
and i'd lose my mind

my windows look into your bathroom,
where i spend the evening watching you get yourself clean.
i wonder why it is that they left this bathroom so unclean,
so unlike me.

i hope i never figure out who broke your heart.
and if i DO,
if i DO.

i'd spend all night losing sleep.
i'd spend the night
and i'd lose my mind.
i'd spend all night losing sleep
and i'd spend the night
and i'd lose my mind

I don't think this has to do with a personal, sexual relationship like a lot of people here have said. To me, it seems like she got a little too interested in her neighbors' lives from afar. Kind of like when you watch a TV show and you get too invested in the characters affairs. She gets so interested in watching their lives from across the way that she thinks about them all night.

I have never heard this.. where can I find it!

Cover art for Living Room lyrics by Tegan and Sara

Its on the new cd... but you wrote that so long ago, maybe you've found the answer. I was listening to some boots of Tee and Esses concerts and heard Tegan talking about her new apartment and how she could see the "recluse" as she called her. I'm pretty sure that's the same person they're talking about in this song, but I could be wrong.

Yeah, I read somewhere that that was why Tegan wrote it. I like that it's just a little dirty-sounding: "I spend the afternoon on top of you."

Cover art for Living Room lyrics by Tegan and Sara

Yeah. I like that line too.

Awesome song... chorus mostly. Not big on the old country sound at roughly the 1:45 minute line.

I'm thinking she was watching someone from her apartment? Haha.... perhaps she seen that he was hurt, and didnt want to find out who broke his heart.... or she'd 'lose her mind'

Cover art for Living Room lyrics by Tegan and Sara

They said during a concert I went to that it was when she moved into an apartment and the people across the way were "a little too close for comfort"

Cover art for Living Room lyrics by Tegan and Sara

i love this song and i love tegan and sara. i know i'm probably wrong but when i heard this song i thought it was about a girl that is with a guy and knows hes thinking about another girl. the girl hes with doesn't want to know or think about he another girl and what they did together.
