lyrics

City of Catharines

I watch her stripping
I watch her grow cold
Cracks run through her skin
And much deeper i’m told
Much deeper i’m told

My hands touch a body
But the body’s still cold
Her eyes stare right through me
In silent revolt
In silent revolt

God wove a garment for her
The most colourfull dress for her

Slowly slowly
That’s the way the leaves grow over the city
Slowly slowly
That’s the way grace still runs right through the city
Do you hear the birds like i do
Do you hear the birds like i do
Calling her home
A garment lies waiting
The most colourfull dress

But the city is stripping
The city is cold
The city is crumbling
Makes me feel old
Makes me feel old
