(1)in a white room    with black curtains    near the station
(2)you said no strings  could secure you     at the station
(3)at the party     she was kindness     in the hard crowd

  blackroof country   no gold pavements     tired starlings
  platform ticket    restless diesels     goodbye windows
  consolation      from the old wound    now forgotten

  silver horses     run down moonbeams    in your dark eyes
  i walked into     such a sad time      at the station
  yellow tigers     crouched in jungles    in her dark eyes

  dawnlight smiles   on your leaving      my contentment
  as I walked out    felt my own need     just beginning
  shes just dressing  goodbye windows      tired starlings

(1)ill wait in this place where the sun never shines
(2)ill wait in the queue when the trains come back
(3)ill sleep in this place with the lonely crowd

  C      G/B       Bb   C    D
  wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves
  ill wait for you  where the shadows run from themselves
  lie in the dark  where the shadows run from themselves
