lyrics

East of Arizona west of New Orleans/Found a bleached skeleton in a pair of blue jeans/A bloody belt of shells across a cage of ribs/Sings “Man is in love and loves what vanishes”/And I would sail around the world just to get her back/Lay ten thousand miles of railroad track./Sail around the world just to get her back/Man is in love and loves what vanishes.//Rise up dry bones, rise up and tell/Where home is found what makes us well./Rise up dry bones and dancing round/Defy the dust in which you are found//
Soon enough they’ll lay you underneath a tree/Like they’ll do to me, like they’ll do to me/It’s for you that I’ve been given this epiphany/My sweet lily, my sweet lily/Till the organist cacophonous /Scares the sparrows from the trees/And the belfries bells bang boisterously/As a bird wings on the breeze round me… round me!/Then my lily white will be reunited/With the only lover she’s ever really gonna need/And like the Mexican blanket in the living room /Ill keep her beating heart warm so she’s not lonely…not lonely!//
