suzanne vega - solitude standing lyrics

Loading...

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

and she turns to me with her hand extended
her palm is split with a flower with a flame

solitude stands in the doorway
and 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

and she turns to me with her hand extended
her palm is split with a flower with a flame

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 say “i’ve never thought of finding you here”

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

and then she turns to me with her hand extended
her palm is split with a flower with a flame

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

solitude stands in the doorway
and 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

and she turns to me with her hand extended
her palm is split with a flower with a flame
