gordon downie – vancouver divorce lyrics
what the h-ll is this?
you said, “it’s art, just f-cking mirror it”
where did we go wrong?
if not here where do we belong?
in a shot of sun off an airplane far above her?
in the glint of the foot-burnished manhole cover?
in a light, a sign of one kind or another?
in the gleaming eye of a fighter or a lover?
sitting here at the horton’s
so you know this is important
if not here then where?
if not now then when?
when a feather’s an immovable force?
when the stampede’s an obstacle course?
when ancient train has h-t old transient horse?
when we’re a vancouver divorce?
now that we’ve hammered the last spike
and we’ve punched the railroad through
thought there’d be more to say
thought there’d be more to do
i love your paintings, don’t take your colours away
i’ve grown more fearful of them every day
swimming up their dark rivers to discover its source
a source of strange and unrequited remorse
and i found the end of the world of course
and it’s not the end of the world of course
it’s just a vancouver divorce
it’s just a vancouver divorce
