(The Line breaks mean you pause as you recite the lyrics. This creates the proper cadence for the song)

In a white room

with Black curtains

At the Station

Black roof country

No gold pavements

Tired Starlings

Sliver Horses

ran down moonbeams

On your dark eyes

Dawn light smiles

On your leaving

My contentment

I’ll wait

in this place

Where the sun

never shines

I 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

Now gets morning,

goodbye windows,

tired starlings

I’ll sleep

in this place

with the

lonely crowd

Lie in the dark,

Where

The shadows

Run

From themselves
