A Window To The Past
(from “Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban”)
Music by John Williams - Lyrics by Judy Nathanson


I see a window in my mind
Every time I stand with you
Only through your eyes can I see the life that I would have; life that I could have known
For you once knew my parents well
Oh, to have your memories
I would treasure every image, every day you shared their lives

In this window to the past
I will gladly enter in
Oh, vicarious dreams I will dream as though I can live each day just to be their son

Share you memories with me
Help me see them through your eyes
Let me know them as well as you knew them in their short life, 
For I want to know them too!

Through this window I will fly
I who bear more than their name
I will do my best to be worthy of their great sacrifice

I see a window in my mind
Every time I stand with you
Only through your eyes can I see the life that I would have; life that I could have known
For you once knew my parents well
Oh, to have your mem’ries

In this window to the past
I will gladly enter in
Oh, vicarious dreams I dream
