White Room Lyrics - Singles - Demons & Wizards

In a white room with black curtains, near the stations 

Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings 

Silver horses run down moonbeams in your dark eyes 

Drawn light smiles on your 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 

When I walked out, felt my own need just beginning 

I'll sleep in this place where the sun never shines 

Wait in the dark where the shadows run from themselves 

At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd 

Consolation from the old wound now forgotten 

Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes 

She's just dressing goodbye windows, tired starlings 

I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back 

Wait here with you where the shadows run from themselves
