The Rhine
Somewhere over the Rhine
I saw her passing the time
Picking blackberries on the vine
And from the top of that hill
I could see the city lights standing still
Where all her blackberry blood was spilled
Into the river, out to the sea
Her heart delivered the poison to me
Hours pass by the chime
Cathedrals keep us in line
For the altar where her blood runs red wine
Jesus was getting his fill at the party
Girls and god's will
Throwing all of Simon's dollar bills
Into the river, up on the cross
Take from the giver, count it all loss
My brother having a beer
And driving the car just like everyone feared
When the tire hit the curb and in the rearview the guard-rail disappeared
Into the river, deep in the Rhine
Oh how he shivered, the day that he died
(it haunts me that you never heard this song)
I saw her passing the time
Picking blackberries on the vine
And from the top of that hill
I could see the city lights standing still
Where all her blackberry blood was spilled
Into the river, out to the sea
Her heart delivered the poison to me
Hours pass by the chime
Cathedrals keep us in line
For the altar where her blood runs red wine
Jesus was getting his fill at the party
Girls and god's will
Throwing all of Simon's dollar bills
Into the river, up on the cross
Take from the giver, count it all loss
My brother having a beer
And driving the car just like everyone feared
When the tire hit the curb and in the rearview the guard-rail disappeared
Into the river, deep in the Rhine
Oh how he shivered, the day that he died
(it haunts me that you never heard this song)
