Earthbound Love Song Songtext

von Over the Rhine

When you find your little dream
Costs you everything
I hope your broken bluebird heart
Still sings

When you find the kiss that brings
The holy aftermath
Follow that blinding light down a crooked path
And wind up here
In an earthbound love song

I wanna see you smiling
On Sunday afternoon
I want your soul to sing you
An everlasting tune

Some questions cannot be answered
Who's gonna bury who
We need a love like Johnny
Johnny and June

You might feel you gotta find your way home
Mostly all alone
Jacob's ladder's still hangin'
But the angels are gone
(Long gone)

They left the jukebox loaded
Our world exploded
Did the preacher have it all wrong?
Is heaven a place you fly off to
When the day is done?
Or do you work right here
On an earthbound love song?

I wanna see you swayin'
On Sunday afternoon
I want your soul to sing you
An everlasting tune

Some questions cannot be answered
Who's gonna bury who?
We need a love like Johnny
Johnny and June

Some questions cannot be answered
Who's gonna bury who
We need a love like Johnny
Johnny and June

We need a love like Johnny
Johnny and June
