Brazil
Doves
Saw a building burning down
In the middle of nowhere
On a sickle moon night
Throughout(?) past that scene
And turned to the flames that were puncturing the sky
People stood and stared
Witnessed the owner, his head in his hands
Saw the moon wired to the sky
Just kept driving, God knows why
Down to the rivers edge
Down to the river and off the edge
Down to another edge
You and I go down to the edge again
I saw a man standing by a light
In the middle of nowhere
In the middle of the night
I looked right into his eyes
And it was just like looking into myself
Even when I don't believe, I still believe
I was thinking about Leonard Cohen
And the dungeon in the tower of song
Anyway you see it that man don't lie
I had to keep on trying,
Trying to cross this great divide
Down to the river's edge
On to the river and off the edge
Down to another ledge
Me and my love, we're down to the edge again
Seems I left my soul in a lay-by
I couldn't get back there, I couldn't see a way
I left my soul there, we didn't see it die
Is this my fate, I can't decide
Trying to cross the great divide
Down to the rivers edge
Down to the river and off the edge
Down to another ledge
Me and my love go down to the edge again
