David Sylvian
Nightporter (Oil on Canvas Version)
[Verse 1]
Could I ever explain
This feeling of love?
It just lingers on
The fear in my heart that keeps telling me which way to turn

[Verse 2]
We'll wander again
Our clothes they are wet
We shy from the rain
Longing to touch all the places we know we can hide
The width of a room that can hold so much pleasure inside

[Chorus]
Here am I alone again
A quiet town where life gives in
Here am I just wondering
Nightporters go, nightporters slip away

[Verse 3]
I'll watch for a sign
And if I should ever again cross your mind
I'll sit my room and wait until nightlife begins
And catching my breath, we'll both brave the weather again

[Chorus]
Here am I alone again
The quiet town where life gives in
Here am I just wondering
Nightporters go, nightporters slip away
