Suzanne Vega - Solitude Standing Edit

And I say "I've never thought of finding you here"

And I say "I've never thought of finding you here"

And I'm struck once again by her black silhouette

And I'm struck once again by her black silhouette

And she says "I've come to set a twisted thing straight"

And she takes my wrist, I feel her imprint of fear

And she turns to me with her hand extended

And she turns to me with her hand extended

And then she turns to me with her hand extended

By her long cool stare and her silence

By her long cool stare and her silence

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame

Her palm is split with a flower with a flame

I can see by her eyes she's been waiting

I suddenly remember each time we've met

I suddenly remember each time we've met

I turn to the crowd as they're watching

I wanted to be in there among them

Solitude stands by the window

Solitude stands in the doorway

Solitude stands in the doorway

Standing in the slant of the late afternoon

They're sitting all together in the dark in the warm
