Grace Cathedral Hill Songtext
von Cerys Matthews

Grace Cathedral hill
All wrapped in bones of setting sun
All dust and stone and moribund
I paid twenty-five cents to light a little white candle

For a new year′s day
I sat and watched it burn away
Then turned and weaved through the slow decay
We were both a little hungry so we went to get hot dog

Down the hyde street pier
The light was slight and disappeared
The air, it stunk of fish and beer
We heard a superman trumpet play the national anthem

And the world may be long for you
But it'll never belong to you
But on a motorbike when all the city lights blind your eyes tonight


Some way to greet the year
Your eyes are bright and brimmed with tears
The pilgrims, pills, and tourists here
All sink 53 bucks to buy a brand new halo

And sweet on a green-eyed girl
All fiery Irish clip and curl
All brine and piss and vinegar
I paid 25 cents to light a little white candle

And the world may be long for you
But it′ll never belong to you
But on a motorbike when all the city lights blind your eyes tonight

Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
Are you feeling better now?
