White Room - (Cream) Eric Clapton

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'll 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'll wait in the queue when the trains come back


Lie with you 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's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired
starlings

I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd


Lie in the dark where the shadows run from
themselves
