The Starlings: Music & Lyrics

Come lay down by my pillow
I’ve been waiting for you all my life
Why won’t you come
My heart is red and beating
Here in the darkest hour of night

Sing me softly by my window
I’ve been waiting for you since twilight
Why won’t you come
My heart is full of silence
Here in the darkest hour of night

Come sit beside me by the river
I’ve been waiting for you since that moon rose high
Why won’t you come
The shadows are all that find me
Here in the darkest hour of night

Come lay down by my pillow
I’ve been waiting for you all my life
Why won’t you come
My heart is red and beating
Here in the darkest hour of night
Here in the darkest hour of night
Here in the darkest hour of night
