Song Lyrics

Standing out by the station
Waiting for the clouds to part
It's been a very long time
You understand my frustration
And I can see the end in sight
But I can't see anyone I know
Not you, the one that I adore
Not you, my vibration

After all the dust has settled and you
Come walking out the dark into view

Only then, can I let her go
Only then, am I calm

So she sits on a stairwell
Her face in shadow like a dream
The whisper, "have you been here for long?"
"Oh no, don't worry"
When I look up she is another
Her figure stretched and torn apart
The echoes are bouncing 'round my brain
Within me, not far

After all the dust has settled and you
Come walking out the dark into view

Only then, can I let her go
Only then, am I calm

After all the dust has settled and you
Come walking out the dark into view

Only then, can I let her go
Only then, am I calm
