Suzanne Vega - Solitude Standing lyrics

Your rating:

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
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
