Holy Water Songtext
von The Triffids

Blue girl
In a summer dress in the greenhouse
Where she overslept dreaming of an ocean
Like a meadow
But wet, wet with holy water

Blue girl
In the shallows floating completely bare
We fell together cos good love is rare
And in the dying light a kerosene sun
Burns warmer than none

Holy water, holy water


Sleeplessness
In the deepest night
Her smallest fear becomes a reef of death
And the Blue girl′s maiden voyage
Is shipwrecked and sunk in holy water

We go swimming in holy water
Floating in holy water
We fell together cos good love is rare
Holy water soaked through her hair
Holy water, holy water

Blue girl
In a summer dress in the greenhouse
Where she overslept dreaming of an ocean
Like a meadow
But wet, wet with holy water

We go swimming in holy water
Lying in the shade of the tree of man
We fell together cos good love is rare
Holy water soaked through her yellow hair
Holy water, holy water
