Sharpest Blade - Over The Rhine[00:00:00]

There was a time[00:00:09]

I could sleep anywhere­­[00:00:13]

My feet on a chair [00:00:17]

My heart in the woods;[00:00:20]

But love was aloof [00:00:27]

Just a beggar for tips[00:00:29]

A mime on whose lips[00:00:36]

No promises stood[00:00:40]

But you can cut me quick[00:00:45]

In the light of the shade [00:00:49]

With the edge of the green[00:00:54]

Of the yard's sharpest blade;[00:00:58]

When nothing I knew[00:01:03]

Was all that it seemed[00:01:07]

I still dreamed[00:01:14]

Of a love to outlive us[00:01:16]

I still prayed[00:01:18]

That this night would outlast us[00:01:20]

And redeem some small thing[00:01:23]

Far beyond me[00:01:30]

Blossoms begin[00:01:41]

Like the tip of a spear [00:01:46]

Or the curve of a tear[00:01:50]

From a soldier who weeps;[00:01:53]

Seducing the guard[00:01:59]

Of lost years falling by­­[00:02:03]

As flowers to lie[00:02:08]

On the dead feigning sleep[00:02:13]

But you cut me quick[00:02:18]

In the light of the shade [00:02:22]

On the edge of the green[00:02:27]

Of the yard's dark parade;[00:02:31]

When nothing we knew[00:02:36]

Was all that it seemed[00:02:40]

I still dreamed[00:02:46]

Of a love to outlive us[00:02:49]

I still prayed[00:02:51]

That this night would forgive us[00:02:53]

And redeem some small thing[00:02:55]

Far beyond me[00:03:04]

But you cut me quick[00:03:49]

In the light of the shade [00:03:53]

On the edge of the green[00:03:58]

Of the yard's sharpest blade;[00:04:02]

When nothing we knew[00:04:07]

Was all that it seemed[00:04:11]

I still dreamed[00:04:17]

Of a love to outlive us[00:04:19]

I still prayed[00:04:22]

That this night will convince us[00:04:24]

And redeem some small thing[00:04:26]

Far beyond me[00:04:35]
