Decemberists - Grace Cathedral Hill Lyrics

Grace cathedral hill

All wrapped in bones of a setting sun

All dust and stone and moribund

I paid twenty-five cents

To light a little white candle

For new year's day

I sat and watched it burn away

Then turned and weaved through slow decay

We were both a little hungry

So we went to get a hot dog

Down the hyde st. pier

The light was slight and disappeared

The air it stunk of fish and beer

We heard a tuba

And trumpet play the national anthem

And the world may be long for you

But he'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?

Some way to greet the year

Your eyes all bright and brimmed with tears

The pilgrims pills and tourists here all sing

"fifty-three bucks to buy a brand new halo"

Sweet on a green eyed girl all fiery

Irish clip and curl all brine and piss and vinegar

I paid twenty-five cents to light a little white candle

And the world maybe be long for you

But he'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?

La la la la la la la la la

Ooh la la la la
