Rufus Wainwright - Red Thread lyrics
[Rufus Wainwright - Red Thread lyrics]
This new castle gets me down
Never was a true believer
Blueprints of a garden's plan turn to green
Cannot explain explain this longing so far
Reaching from the ground
And if I don't mind myself, marble stairs
You will lead me from my cares
And explain it step by step
Quietly among the pines
I remember I was walking
Behind walls and window panes
By the other courtesan
Madly weaving with most delicate remorse
And watching my idle hands, making signs
Upon my womb, a loom of kinds
And explaining glorious paths
Oh, let it be for us, behind us and below us
We'll reign just like the rain above
But there came the fires
All across the nation
And I could not explain this pound
How this turned upside down
Covered in red thread
Houses turned upside down
Covered in red thread
Never was a true believer
Blueprints of a garden's plan turn to green
Cannot explain explain this longing so far
Reaching from the ground
And if I don't mind myself, marble stairs
You will lead me from my cares
And explain it step by step
Quietly among the pines
I remember I was walking
Behind walls and window panes
By the other courtesan
Madly weaving with most delicate remorse
And watching my idle hands, making signs
Upon my womb, a loom of kinds
And explaining glorious paths
Oh, let it be for us, behind us and below us
We'll reign just like the rain above
But there came the fires
All across the nation
And I could not explain this pound
How this turned upside down
Covered in red thread
Houses turned upside down
Covered in red thread
