Over The Rhine - The Genius of Water lyrics

At the bus stop

We'll ride into the town

Down to the square

To see the angel

See the angel in the fountain

Meet me in the morning

Meet me after daybreak

Tie your hair back

We'll drift into the crowd

Get lost among the loud

And they'll be singing

They'll be singing in our daydream

When we're tired we'll leave them all behind

And walk away

I love you

I love you

I love you a lot

Meet me in the courtyard

Where the saints pray

Musing in our stare

Still painfully aware

That there are others

Shoulds and woulds with names and faces

Close you eyes

And open up your mind

And hear me say

I love you

I love you

I love you a lot

See the angel

She's dancing in the water

Hear the angel

She's laughing in the water

Something in the way that you

Said you really felt that we could be

Good friends forever

..together for a long time
