Lyrics
I have a need, for solitude
I'll never be, safe, in crowded rooms
I like the sound, of silence coming on
I come around, when everyone has gone
I have a need, for cool, verdant spaces
Beneath the trees, secret empty places
Nobody knows, so no one will intrude
I have a need, for solitude
But you can find me, when the light is changing
At that time of day when there's
Little day remaining
You can find me where I've been waiting
Waiting here for you
I never was, the pretty girl in school
I never was, fast, tough and cool
All I was, all my life, it seems
Was hard to love, harder now to keep
But you can find me
When the light is changing
At that time of day, when there's
Little day remaining
I have a need, for solitude
I'll never be, safe, in crowded rooms
I like the sound, of silence coming on
I come around, when everyone has gone
Mmm, mmm
I'll never be, safe, in crowded rooms
I like the sound, of silence coming on
I come around, when everyone has gone
I have a need, for cool, verdant spaces
Beneath the trees, secret empty places
Nobody knows, so no one will intrude
I have a need, for solitude
But you can find me, when the light is changing
At that time of day when there's
Little day remaining
You can find me where I've been waiting
Waiting here for you
I never was, the pretty girl in school
I never was, fast, tough and cool
All I was, all my life, it seems
Was hard to love, harder now to keep
But you can find me
When the light is changing
At that time of day, when there's
Little day remaining
I have a need, for solitude
I'll never be, safe, in crowded rooms
I like the sound, of silence coming on
I come around, when everyone has gone
Mmm, mmm
