[Intro]
Oh my God!

[Verse 1: Rufus Wainwright]
You can go out dancin'
And I'll write about you dancin' without you
And I'll shed a tear between my legs

[Verse 2: Rufus Wainwright]
When you were here I missed you
Now that you're away I'm out there without you
And I shed a tear between my legs

[Verse 3: Rufus Wainwright]
Though we live in the same city
You live in another state far away from me
And all of my unfaded charms

[Chorus: Rufus Wainwright]
But when the rocket ships all fall
And the bridges they all buckle
And everybody's packin' up their station wagons
There's a number you can call
Like a breast that you can suckle
And we quietly will exit as it all is happenin'
[Verse 4: Rufus Wainwright]
Again I'm afraid of one thing
Will I walk away from love knowing nothing
Wearin' my heart between my legs

[Verse 5: Rufus Wainwright]
But when I know you're naked
Lyin' on the bed while I'm at the piano
All I can say is I can't fake it

[Chorus: Rufus Wainwright]
When the rocket ships all fall
And the bridges they all buckle
And everybody's packin' up their station wagons
There's a number you can call
Like a breast that you can suckle
And we quietly will exit as it all is happenin' again

[Outro: Rufus Wainwright & Siân Phillips]
'Cause there's a river runnin' underground
Underneath the town towards the sea
That only I know all about
On which from this city we can flee
There is a river running underground
Underneath the town towards the sea
That only I know all about
On which from this city we can flee
On which from this city we can flee
We can flee
