INTRO : ( ) 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 e- chords.com 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
