	I'll	wait in this	place where the	sun never	shines.

	G	D	F	G	A	A
	Wait in this	place where the	shadows	run from them	selves.

You said no strings could secure you at the stations.

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.

I'll wait for you 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 sleep in this place with the lonely crowd,

Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves.
