Over The Rhine
Wait
Wait for the sound of the water dogTo call up the ghosts through the cracks in my pastMake the hair raise on my skinTonight we’ll settle inInto a promise that I’ve held fastLife is a beauty that’s mocking youShe’s a river to drown in while singing the bluesLet the backstroke pull you inOn your lover you descendLeaving your mark without leaving a bruiseMake the soundThat I need you toHit the groundLike it’s haunting youCome aroundLike you’re dying toThen wait…Wait for the sound of the water dogTo call up the ghosts through the cracks in my pastMake the hair raise on my skinTonight we’ll settle inInto a promise that I’ve held fast
