White Room Lyrics - Live At The Canterbury Fayre - Jack Bruce

In the white room with black curtains near the station 

Blackroof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings 

Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes 

Dawnlight 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;
