[Intro: 12 measures of Amsus2]
Amsus2 Amsus2
Solitude stands by the window
She turns her head as I walk in the room
Amsus2 Amsus2I can see by her eyes she's been waiting
Amsus2 Amsus2Standing in the slant of the late afternoon
And she turns to me with her hand extended
B5/A B5/A Amsus2 Amsus2Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
Am(9)/C Am(9)/C B5 B5 Am(9)/C Am(9)/C B5 B5
[instrumental; melody is cdeGABcd eGABcdeG ABcdeGAB etc.]
Amsus2 Amsus2 Amsus2 Amsus2[instrumental]
Solitude stands in the doorway
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
[12 bars of instrumental again]
And she says, "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"
Amsus2 Amsus2 Amsus2/G Amsus2/FAnd she says, "I've come to lighten this dark heart"
C#m7 C#m7 Bsus4 Amsus2And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear
And I say, "I never thought of finding you here"
And I turn to the crowd as they're watching
They're sitting all together in the dark and the warm
And I wanted to be in there among them
I see how their eyes are gathered into one
And she turns to me with her hand extended
Her palm is split with a flower with a flame
[12 bars of instrumental again]
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 never thought of finding you here"
Solitude stands in the doorway
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
[Fade out on repeated Am(9)/C & B5]
