lyrics

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Light upon my shadow light upon the floor
Light upon my window light upon the door
Waiting in my empty room waiting for the sun
Waiting for your smiling eyes, it's only just begun, begun

Ooh ooh oooh ooh

Resting in the shadow resting on the floor
Touching every corner opening the door
Waiting for your gentle voice waiting for my one
Waiting for your smiling eyes remaining by what's done, what's done

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Sitting with my shadow sitting on the floor
Packing up my suitcase walking out the door
I wish you hadn’t followed me, I wish you hadn't come
I wish that I could see you now, my love

Ooh ooh ooh ooh

Emptying this hollow sound, emptying my mind
Emptying your pretty face letting it unwind
Waiting for your smiling eyes, waiting for the sun
I wish you hadn't followed me...

Stephen Scholle Hartsdale, New York

I write from the chord voicings and I write from the voice inside. Some songs channel moments. Sometimes words just sound good. I like to let the song speak and I like to work with others on that. If you'd like, get in touch. ... more
