Suzanne Vega - Solitude Standing download song

Song Lyrics

And i m struck once again by her black silhouette, solitude stands by the window
And she turns to me with her hand extended, her palm is split with a flower with a flame
I see how their eyes are gathered into one, her palm is split with a flower with a flame
and she takes my wrist
And she says l ve come to lighten this dark heart, i can see by her eyes she s been waiting
And she says i ve come to set a twisted thing straight, solitude stands by the window

Solitude stands in the doorway, she turns her head as i walk in the room, her palm is split with a flower with a flame
I feel her imprint of fear, i see how their eyes are gathered into one
By her long cool stare and her silence, she turns her head as i walk in the room, and she says i ve come to set a twisted thing straight
I wanted to be in there among them, and she turns to me with her hand extended
Solitude stands in the doorway, solitude stands in the doorway
And i m struck once again by her black silhouette, and she takes my wrist

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame, and i m struck once again by her black silhouette
Standing in the slant of the late afternoon, and then she turns to me with her hand extended
and i say i ve never thought of finding you here
solitude stands in the doorway
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame, i suddenly remember each time we ve met Vega, and i m struck once again by her black silhouette
And she takes my wrist, her palm is split with a flower with a flame

By her long cool stare and her silence, standing in the slant of the late afternoon Solitude, and she says l ve come to lighten this dark heart
And she takes my wrist, and she turns to me with her hand extended
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, solitude stands in the doorway
And i m struck once again by her black silhouette, and she says i ve come to lighten this dark heart, and she says i ve come to set a twisted thing straight
And then she turns to me with her hand extended, by her long cool stare and her silence, and she takes my wrist

standing in the slant of the late afternoon
And she takes my wrist, she turns her head as i walk in the room
Standing in the slant of the late afternoon, and she turns to me with her hand extended, and she says i ve come to set a twisted thing straight
and she turns to me with her hand extended
they re sitting all together in the dark in the warm
And she says l ve come to lighten this dark heart, i feel her imprint of fear

i feel her imprint of fear
I feel her imprint of fear, her palm is split with a flower with a flame, and i m struck once again by her black silhouette
And i m struck once again by her black silhouette, her palm is split with a flower with a flame Solitude, and i say i ve never thought of finding you here
I feel her imprint of fear, her palm is split with a flower with a flame
I suddenly remember each time we ve met, i can see by her eyes she s been waiting, i turn to the crowd as they re watching
And i say i ve never thought of finding you here, and she says i ve come to set a twisted thing straight

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame, and she says i ve come to set a twisted thing straight Standing, and she takes my wrist
standing in the slant of the late afternoon
by her long cool stare and her silence
and she takes my wrist
i feel her imprint of fear
And i m struck once again by her black silhouette, and she turns to me with her hand extended
