==Song information== When the song was being promoted, a portion of the song's beginning was omitted. This was to help accommodate some radio stations that wanted an instrumental beginning rather than a vocal one. The song's lyrics describes the intense love that Etheridge has for another person. It describes situations that she is willing to endure and how happy the other person makes her feel. In addition, the song implicitly alludes to the singer's sexual orientation and activism by the lyrics: :"I don't care what they think. :I don't care what they say. :What do they know about this love, anyway?"{{citation needed|date=July 2020}} Etheridge tells both in her autobiography and during the interview on the bonus DVD of her greatest hits album that out of all songs she has written, "Come to My Window" is the one that surprises her the most, and that she almost did not put it on the album. She states that while she wrote the song, she did not realize what she was actually writing and that it was not before meeting [[Tammy Lynn Michaels]] that she understood what this song means to other people. She also says that it has the best [[Bridge (music)|musical bridge]] part of all her songs. The sound effect at the beginning was created by Mauricio Fritz Lewak who put coins inside of a pair of [[clash cymbals]]. This song was also about her girlfriend at the time.{{citation needed|date=July 2020}}
