Cathedrals Lyrics - Through The Trees - Handsome Family

The Cathedral in Cologne looks like a spaceship 

Like the hand of God falling from the sky 

A thousand stone-carved saints hang like icicles 

But icicles don't take hundred years to die 

And everyone who ever worked on this Cathedral 

Or even spent a moment walking by 

Everyone of us is swept away like breadcrumbs 

What comfort does it bring, soaring towers left behind 

There's a fiberglass castle in Wisconsin 

Where kids race go-karts around a moat 

Once we went up there in December 

When every water slide and fudge shop was closed 

Hoping to feel love under the icicles 

All we did was drink in an empty bar 

But stumbling drunk we crawled back to our motel room 

And I fell against you and felt your beating heart
