Sophia Songtext

von Laura Nyro

Five o'clock in the fire escape symphony
Spilling out across the road on the squire
And the skies that sing when you wrote "you think of me"
To parks and leafs reach you there

After the rain in the lonely hours
He haunts me, crueling out, again and again

[Chorus]
Sophia, Sophia
I'm burning, I'm burning
It's a fire, a fire I cannot put out
It's a fire, it's a fire I'm burning that's something I cannot go without
And one of them is him

Now I'm walking the streets like a stranger in my hometown
Do the language forms the words when I speak
But he changed me out this ghosts since he came around
Now I count the hours and the days in the weeks

Passion and silence
Every word and every line, a measure
It's the science of the soul
And it's words debreath the reason
And now I wanna know

[Chorus]
Sophia, Sophia
I'm burning, I'm burning
It's a fire, a fire I cannot put out
It's a fire, it's a fire I'm burning that's something I cannot go without
And one of them is him

And you with your new born eyes
Have you ever loved men
Like I loved him
Does your heart still feel alive
Like never before,

Oh Sophia... Sophia

[Chorus]
Sophia, Sophia
I'm burning, I'm burning
It's a fire, a fire I cannot put out
It's a fire, it's a fire I'm burning that's something I cannot go without
And one of them is him

I can't go without him...
