God Once Loved A Woman lyrics

God once loved a woman
Her features, soft and German
And one day, after sermon
God followed her home
Across the George Washington
Where her blouse caught the sun
And her eyes lit up like she just recognized someone

Her son ran past her window
She reached through the thin smoke
And touched the yellow glass
Through the cold burning past
Now all the boneyards tremble with her name
Just stay, my sweet Lorraine

He felt her in him, growing
He wanted her to know him
So when it started snowing
God spoke to her from
The PATH train platform
The ground, it shook, rats ran in swarms
And scratched and clawed, and through the fog, there rose a form

He said "You are the most beautiful thing that I made"
And he watched her face twist and melt towards the shade
Now all the boneyards tremble with her name
Something’s there, you don’t care, it's unfair
It’s a drain still clogged up with her hair
Don’t you get the concept? You ain’t slept
It’s the dorm where her things were once kept
Don't you care? It's unfair, you ain't there
It's the drain still clogged up with her hair
Don’t you get the concept? You ain’t slept
It’s the dorm where her things were once kept
