Mary Chapin Carpenter - I Have A Need For Solitude 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 all the rest have gone...
