over the rhine - etcetera whatever lyrics
don’t speak.
words come out your eyes.
you’re wet with this nightmare.
like th-rns you hold these secrets to your breast,
your slender fingers closing into fists.
trace your bruise
like a guilty streak.
hold the pain.
you’re a connoisseur.
you think you have no other gift to give,
but we have so much left to live.
we don’t need a lot of money.
we’ll be sleeping on the beach,
keeping oceans within reach.
(whatever private oceans we can conjure up for free.)
i will stumble there with you
and you’ll be laughing close with me,
trying not to make a scene
etcetera. whatever. i guess all i really mean
is we’re gonna be alright.
yeah, we’re gonna be alright.
you can close your eyes tonight,
’cause we’re gonna be alright.
so come on now,
i can almost see
that place
on a distant sh-r-.
and courage is a weapon we must use
to find some life you can’t refuse.
we don’t need a lot of money.
we’ll be sleeping on the beach,
keeping oceans within reach.
(whatever private oceans we can conjure up for free.)
i will stumble there with you
and you’ll be laughing close with me,
trying not to make a scene
etcetera. whatever. i guess all i really mean
is we’re gonna be alright.
yeah, we’re gonna be alright.
you can close your eyes tonight,
’cause we’re gonna be alright.
all that i can see is your eyes.
close your eyes.
close your eyes.
