Lyrics Over the Rhine

Over the Rhine

Faithfully Dangerous

Your paint dries, the canvas smiles

With two eyes you lift yourself up

Stroke your skin, there are teeth marks to be sure

Maybe we're best close to the ground

Maybe angels drag us down

I wonder which part of this will leave the scar

Dip your hands in colors

While the young night flutters in on you and

Finger paint me pictures of all you see

No matter what they say, you'll always be

Faithfully dangerous, lost and lovely

So beautiful to me

I'm not too blind to see

Red is blood. Black is sky

White's the dove that longs to fly

You set it free and it beats its wings in me

It leaves us at a loss for words

Is that me now in your arms?

We cradle together and fall down on our knees

Let the whole world drift downstream

We'll always be different

Swim the silent slipstream inside of me

No matter what they say, you'll always be

Faithfully dangerous, lost and lovely

So beautiful to me

I'm not too blind to see

Red is blood. Black is sky

White's the dove that longs to fly

You set it free and it beats its wings in me

It leaves us at a loss for words

Is that me now in your arms?

We cradle together and fall down on our knees

The heart that beats is yours inside me

Red is love. Black is night

I'm drunk with angels taking flight

The heart that beats is yours inside me

The heart that beats is yours inside me

The heart that beats is yours
