lyrics
back at the bar it began with a joke
you were teasing the Brit about his rum and coke
and his attire
you were quite fond of the woman he later described having met at the bar
well, that's the woman you are
and this is his way of expressing his faith in you, Cleveland.
She told the Brit to sing like his heart was about to explode and you don't know what to do about it
I said I will; I count myself lucky to have found a friend in you
coz I've got an old soul too
and this is my way of expressing my faith in you, Cleveland.
being here with you is like breathing fresh air after being locked up in an attic for an age
The Brit proposed that they should go on an adventure
They appeared to be on the same page
To what extent is this a book about the end of days?
I went to the garden of love
There were tombstones where flowers should be
and all the priests in black gowns walking their rounds were especially leery of me
As they should be, because I've got faith in you, Cleveland!
So I asked the pastor: do you have an opinion?
Does it happen to involve persuading people they've got demons in them and that they're full of sin?
blood alone will save their souls'
I know those people and they're pretty fucking cool
In fact, my cornerstone's my faith in them.
Your assurance to me that bleakness has not overcome us made me smile but you're still trying to win me over; ok, well I'm doing so in style
This song's about my faith in Cleveland
no not the place
Cleveland's a person I embrace as a cornerstone
we should each find our own.
She said "I'm not in for an emotional venture but I'm glad you're in the world," to which the Brit said "whether or not we go on that adventure, I'm glad that you're in it as well, and this is my way of expressing my faith in you, Cleveland."
and that faith's a cornerstone.
and that faith's a cornerstone.
