Print Version


the Cathedral in Cologne looks like a spaceship
like the hand of God falling from the sky
a 1000 stone-carved saints hang like icicles
but icicles don't take 1000 years to die

and everyone who ever worked on this Cathedral
or even spent a moment walking by
everyone of us is swept away like breadcrumbs
what comfort does it bring, soaring towers left behind

there's a fiberglass castle in Wisconsin
where kids race go-karts around a moat
once we went up there in December
when every waterslide and fudgeshoop was closed

hoping to feel love under the icicles
all we did was drink in an empty bar
but stumbling drunk we crawled back to our motel room
and I fell against you and felt your beating heart

snow was slowly falling on the ice machine
and the moon shone hazy through the pines
but there were lounge chairs thrown into the empty pool
and a dog chained to a tree barking at the sky

Other Handsome Family song Lyrics
  • Cathedrals
    "I am not afraid when you call me down
    down the basement steps under the house
    down, down in the ground
    black cows are limping, the white dogs bark..."
  • Down in the Ground
    "down in the valley of hollow logs
    two lovers lay in the weeds
    safe in the net of their sweaty arms
    safe from the wind in the trees..."
  • Down in the Valley of Hollow Logs
    "there's a mountain north of Winnipeg
    buried under ice
    and as the black clouds roll above
    white pines crack like glass..."
  • I Fell
    "last night I went out walking
    out on the edge of town
    not going no place special
    only wandering around..."
  • Last Night I Went out Walking
    "my ghost drives around with a bag of dead fish
    falling neutrinos drift through the trees
    he staggers and reels, runs up credit card bills
    and clogs up the toilet with bottles of pills..."
  • My Ghost
    "we came in this world together
    legs wrapped around each other
    my cheek against my sister's
    we were born like tangled vine..."
  • My Sisters Tiny Hands
    "falling snow spun above the road
    winding through the dark woods
    where my pick-up stalled
    falling snow hissing through the air..."
  • Stalled
    "the giant of Illinois
    died from a blister on his toe
    after walking all day throughthe first winter's snow
    throwing bits of stale breadto the last speckled doves..."
