My Lover Lies Under

My Lover Lies Under - Cherry Ghost

Through the shadows of the old high rise

Cross the footnotes of self sacrifice

Some place somewhere there are bluer skies

My lover lies under

Pass the battle hymns of late night bars

Through the endless lines of motor cars

There's a quiet night of quiet stars

My lover lies under

I do believe I've lost my faith in Hollywood

Those dreams upon the screen ain't for the likes of us

But I swear somewhere there is a heart that I could love

But sometimes I wonder

Passing the warring tongues and prying eyes

Through the subways and the city lights

Some place somewhere there are bluer skies

My lover lies under

I do believe I've lost my faith in Hollywood

Those dreams upon the screen ain't for the likes of us

But I swear somewhere there is a heart that I could love

But sometimes I wonder

Through the shadows of the old high rise

Cross the factory floors and the severed ties

There's a sunset in our paradise

That my lover lies under

My lover lies under

But sometimes I wonder
