suzanne vega - solitude standing (acoustic version) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
solitude stands by the window
she turns her head as i walk in the room
i can see by her eyes she’s been waiting
standing in the slant of the late afternoon

[refrain]
and she turns to me with her hand extended
her palm is split with a flower, with a flame

[verse 2]
solitude stands in the doorway
i’m struck once again by her black silhouette
by her long cool stare and her silence
i suddenly remember each time we’ve met
[refrain]
and she turns to me with her hand extended
her palm is split with a flower, with a flame

[bridge]
and she says, “i’ve come to set a twisted thing straight”
and she says, “i’ve come to lighten this dark heart”
and she takes my wrist, i feel her imprint of fear
and i said, “i never thought of finding you here”

[verse 3]
and i turn to the crowd as they’re watching
they’re sitting all together in the dark, in the warm
and i wanted to be in there among them
i see how their eyes are gathered into one

[refrain]
and she turns to me with her hand extended
her palm is split with a flower, with a flame

[bridge]
and she says, “i’ve come to set a twisted thing straight”
and she says, “i’ve come to lighten this dark heart”
and she takes my wrist, i feel her imprint of fear
and i said, “i never thought of finding you here”
[verse 2]
solitude stands in the doorway
i’m struck once again by her black silhouette
by her long cool stare and her silence
i suddenly remember each time we’ve met

[refrain]
and she turns to me with her hand extended
her palm is split with a flower, with a flame
