Lyrics
[Verse 1]
So softly speaking
Your word's a constant babbling stream
Come from nowhere-where-where
Come from nowhere-where-where
[Verse 2]
You eyelids paint in chalk
Shimmering haze just as you talk
Are you sinking-king-king?
Are you sinking-king-king?
[Verse 3]
I see that your left arm is ink stained
And since you're sleeveless
Your winged lion gives a sly wink
Does he know my loneliness?
[Verse 4]
And then I steal a glimpse of your face
As you turn the other way
Now I'll play your ghost as my ace
Whenever I'm led astray
[Verse 5]
Here's my station
Here's my station
Ooh
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
Here's my station
Here's my station
Ooh
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
[Verse 6]
Such an attitude
Impatient, gloriously rude
Are you for real, real, real?
You're not for real, real, real
[Verse 7]
Every breath you take
Is a violent strain that breaks
Through the cursing-sing-sing
Through the cursing-sing-sing
[Verse 8]
Right before you I had nothing
But a handful of sad scents
And this town is dead, my darling
You're the one that reinvents
[Verse 9]
With my lips sealed I say a prayer
Long live the fool, kill the king
I am offered newborn anger
And the storm will hear us sing
[Verse 10]
Here's my station
Here's my station
Ooh
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
Here's my station
Here's my station
Ooh
But if you say just one word I'll stay with you
[Verse 11]
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
Pour que l'orage s'annonce
[Verse 12]
We are so lonely in this part of town
We are so lonely
We are so lonely
