Eric Clapton - White Room lyrics

In the white room with black
Curtains near the station
Black roof country, no gold pavements
Tired starlings
Silver horses ran down moonbeams
In your dark eyes
Dawn light smiles on you leaving
My contentment

I will wait in this place
Where the sun never shines
Wait in this place where the
Shadows run from themselves

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 will wait in this place
Where the sun never shines
Wait in this place where the
Shadows run from themselves

At the party she was kindness
In the hard crowd
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles
In her dark eyes
She is just dressing, goodbye windows
Tired starlings

I will wait in this place
Where the sun never shines
Wait in this place where the
Shadows run from themselves
