Epiphany

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 oon 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! 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.
