 You said no strings could secure you at the station
 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 where the trains come by
 I'll wait for you where the shadows run from themselves

 Gm    F    Dm    C 
 Gm    F    Dm    C  Am7

 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

 Gm    F    Dm    C
 Gm    F    Dm    C  Am7
