lyrics
You’re holding up the Rhine
You're holding up the Rhine again
but you smell like the rain
in Calgary
In the bed of Aaron lies
trace of a perfect thigh
one tear
from the steel grey eye
of a Slavic soul
What was her chair in Aaron’s tomb
now guards a bright alabaster room
a shady Brigadoon
for Bluebeard’s brides…
Some choose erosion
as the beast to eat their heart away
I’d take implosion
over dissolution any day
but I’d change my mind
for one who’d lock me in that way
hey hey hey
You’re holding up the Rhine…
All the lines I see from here,
they curve and they disappear
like Julia, in her last disguise
as a Russian tease
Everything he says sounds clear,
but oh, it’s his grace they fear
I would recommend she run from here
if he moves his eyes
Some take the ocean for its
windy, leeward Adelaides
Some hold the landing
as they pray for a tide
that comes and stays
All my life
I’ve wanted earth and sea both ways
hey hey hey
oh Calgary man
save the best years of your life this way
oh Calgary man
say you’ll meet again some day
Into her arms, the battle of the confidences rages –
out of the hole in your heart
You’re holding up the Rhine…
You're holding up the Rhine again
but you smell like the rain
in Calgary
In the bed of Aaron lies
trace of a perfect thigh
one tear
from the steel grey eye
of a Slavic soul
What was her chair in Aaron’s tomb
now guards a bright alabaster room
a shady Brigadoon
for Bluebeard’s brides…
Some choose erosion
as the beast to eat their heart away
I’d take implosion
over dissolution any day
but I’d change my mind
for one who’d lock me in that way
hey hey hey
You’re holding up the Rhine…
All the lines I see from here,
they curve and they disappear
like Julia, in her last disguise
as a Russian tease
Everything he says sounds clear,
but oh, it’s his grace they fear
I would recommend she run from here
if he moves his eyes
Some take the ocean for its
windy, leeward Adelaides
Some hold the landing
as they pray for a tide
that comes and stays
All my life
I’ve wanted earth and sea both ways
hey hey hey
oh Calgary man
save the best years of your life this way
oh Calgary man
say you’ll meet again some day
Into her arms, the battle of the confidences rages –
out of the hole in your heart
You’re holding up the Rhine…
