"Remain (Oh, Canada Version)" lyrics
(from "Oh, Canada" soundtrack)
The stars would know
To send you the shivers
And night would glow
In the room in which you swim
Filled with breath
Of people making bird sounds
And topless girls
With pretty messy hair
And swirling around
Is that swollen sound
Of horns all astrayed
From some eternal parade
Hey I got fits
And a fire in my belly
And shiny lips
Can fumbling, find a seal
The water, dear
Can touch you all over
But nothing here
Can touch the way you feel
This difficult and lonely cycle
Of your birth in the air
And recovering from that
You'll hold me here
Until I can't afford your kindness
You'll hold me, dear
Until I can't afford to leave
And lightning real is leaning out and calling
But there's all of that doubt
Plus there's all of that skin
But all is grace
And all is beauty
And when all this is gone
Beauty will remain
To send you the shivers
And night would glow
In the room in which you swim
Filled with breath
Of people making bird sounds
And topless girls
With pretty messy hair
And swirling around
Is that swollen sound
Of horns all astrayed
From some eternal parade
Hey I got fits
And a fire in my belly
And shiny lips
Can fumbling, find a seal
The water, dear
Can touch you all over
But nothing here
Can touch the way you feel
This difficult and lonely cycle
Of your birth in the air
And recovering from that
You'll hold me here
Until I can't afford your kindness
You'll hold me, dear
Until I can't afford to leave
And lightning real is leaning out and calling
But there's all of that doubt
Plus there's all of that skin
But all is grace
And all is beauty
And when all this is gone
Beauty will remain
