White Room

Two Notes guitar harmony with bass in E

Bridge in D

Black roof country     no gold pavements    tired starlings
Silver horses      ran down moonbeams       in your dark eyes
Dawn light smiles      on you leaving         my contentment

    I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines
    Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves

You said no strings         could secure you           at the station
Platform ticket        restless diesels        goodbye windows
I walked into           such a sad time            at the station
As I walked out          felt my own need          just beginning

       I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
       Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves

At the party        she was kindness         in the hard crowd
Consolation           for the old wound         now forgotten
Yellow tigers        crouched in jungles          in her dark eyes
She's just dressing       goodbye windows          tired starlings

        I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd
        Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves
