Amsus2[instrumenAmsus2tal] Amsus2 Amsus2 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]
Amsus2 Amsus2 Amsus2/G Amsus2/F And she says, "I've come to set a twisted thing straight" Amsus2 Amsus2 Amsus2/G Amsus2/F And she says, "I've come to lighten this dark heart"
C#m7 And she takes my C#m7wrist, I feel her Bsus4imprint ofAmsus2 fear C#m7 And I say, &quC#m7ot;I never thoughBsus4t of findingAmsus2 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]
