It's not the spark that caused the fire
It was the air you breathed that fanned the flame
What you think you'll solve with violence
Will only spread like a disease
Until it all comes 'round again
Was John the only dreamer?
Sleep with one ear close to the ground
And wake up screaming
When we lay our cold weapons down
We'll wake up dreaming
Obsessions with self-preservation
Faded when I threw my fear away
It's not a thing you can imagine
You either lose your fear
Or spend your life with one foot in the grave
Is God the last romantic?
Sleep with one ear close to the ground
And wake up screaming
When we lay our cold weapons down
We'll wake up dreaming
only love can turn this around
I wake up dreaming
Everything we've lost can be found
We'll wake up dreaming

Over The Rhine는 Linford Detweiler와
Karin Bergquist 부부를 주축으로 한 팀입니다
이전의 앨범인 Ohio 때만 해도 좀 염세적이라고나 할까
그런 분위기 였지만 이번 앨범은
인류를 치유해 줄 수 있는 사랑을 노래하고 있는데
두사람의 행복한 결혼 생활때문인지
분위기가 참 많이 달라진 것같네요
포크를 기반으로
블루스 재즈 컨트리적인 느낌을 가미하고
Acoustic Guitar 와 어울리는 콘트라베이스의 소리가
새로운 분위기를 느끼게 합니다.....
