Over The Rhine - Long lost brother

Tekst :

I thought that we d be
Further along by now
I can t remember how
We stumbled to this place

I loved you like a long lost brother
On a bad day maybe I thought why bother
I ve seldom seen so much anger
In a face

I wanna do better
I wanna try harder
I wanna believe
Down to the letter

Jesus and Mary
Can you carry us
Across this ocean
Into the arms of forgiveness

I don t mean to laugh outloud
I m trying to come clean
Trying to shed my doubt
Maybe I should just keep
My big mouth shut

More often than not
When it comes to you
You want whatever s not in front of you
Deep down I know this includes me too

So tell me your troubles
Let your pain rain down
I know my job I ve been around
I invest in the mess
I m a low cost dumping ground

Trouble is I m so exhausted
The plot, you see, I think I ve lost it
I need the grace to find what can t be found

    I love it when you call my name

    Once I dreamt love would set me free
    Warm as a kiss blowing on the breeze
    Your love is a vicious game
    I ll never be, never be, never be free again

    You tell me lies so I ll make love to you
    You...

    Baby

    Baby, it s alright
    Stop your crying
    Now

    Nothing is here to stay
    Everything has to begin and end
    A ship in a bottle won t sail
    All we can do is dream that the wind will blow us across the water

    Ganz und gar

    Ich würd mich für dich erhängen
    Und ich würd vom Hochhaus springen
    Ich würd mich für dich erschiessen
    Mit Benzin mich übergiessen
    Doch Garantien geb ich keine
    Wenn du mich liebst, dann mich allein
    Komm, halt mich fest, ich will...

    A gospel number

    Will a man called Jesus ever take me in his arms?
    Will a man called Jesus ever take me in his arms?
    I lack grace and I lack charm.
    This is cause for no alarm,
    if a man called Jesus ever takes me in his arms.

    Will a man called Jesus ever touch me on...

    The morning after

    Caught up against the war again
    Time to chill in the bar again
    Never seize to amaze in minds
    So i just sleep, sleep, sleep, please don t...

    ...Wake me till the morning after (2x)

    Cut my peace by the flower again
    Lick my wounds like a dove...
