"White Room" lyrics

In a white room, with black curtains, near the station
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 window
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
