Story Behind The Song
Mark P. Case wrote the lyrics. I met Mark at a film-makers meeting where he was preparing to shoot a film. He and I made a film together. He wrote How To Date Beautiful Women and I produced it and wrote all the music for the soundtrack. His lyrics inspired the music for this song.
Song Description
They say the eyes are the Windows to the Soul. In this song the singer is looking into the eyes of their lover and realizing that their love is over. At the same time, the lover comes to the same realization. Their is no anger in this song; that's just the way it is. But there were shared memories so the this is a poignant moment for the soon-to-be ex couple.

Lyrics
This version is an instrumental but Timari sings a vocal version so here are the lyrics which were written by Mark Case:
WINDOWS
I looked into your windows to see inside your soul.
I had to know if all was well where love had found its home.
I saw your house was empty, when it came to me.
That never-ending love we shared was just a memory.
Your eyes are the windows to your soul.
Forever came and now we're letting go.
Tears fill my eyes and memories fill my mind,
as I look into your windows one last time.
Emotions swell inside me. Thoughts race through my mind.
But words have all been spoken. Our love has passed with time.
I pull you close and hold you. We whisper our goodbyes.
You reach for me and touch my face, then brush my tears aside.
I smile at you and kiss your cheek and tell you I'll be fine.
I watch as my reflection fades from your windows one last time.
Your eyes are the windows to your soul.
Forever came and now we're letting go.
Tears fill my eyes and memories fill my mind,
as I look into your windows one last time.
I looked into your windows to see inside your soul.
I had to know if all was well where love had found its home.
