"Through My Window" was the Estonian entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 2006, performed in English by Sandra Oxenryd.
As Estonia had not qualified for the final in their previous appearance, the song was performed in the semi-final. Here, it was performed twenty-first (following Sweden's Carola with "Invincible" and preceding Bosnia and Herzegovina's Hari Mata Hari with "Lejla"). At the close of voting, it had received 28 points, placing 18th in a field of 23 - missing the final and forcing Estonia to qualify through the semi-final at their next appearance.
The song is an up-tempo number, with Sandra explaining that her lover keeps her safe "when life is a road going nowhere". The music was described pre-Contest as being inspired by pop-country styles, such as that of Shania Twain.
Following the Contest, the song was covered by South African boy band Hi-5 as Daai Liedje (Your Song).
