Story Behind The Song

I wrote it

Song Description

urban isolation and dislusionment with a longing to see the stars (now just streetlights) with the apparitional catherine: a lover, mother mary figure who's there but maybe not real, or just a lover projected beyond her flesh.

Lyrics

catherine the night is closing in all around me
I like the dream sometime better than the real thing
this night's got bones I can hold it up alone
my body's waying on me like a stone

prechorus:
oh my hearts not able
you blame time, it's so stable you can't control it

chorus:
Hey Catherine come on in
Hey catherine take away my sins
hey catherine knock upon my door
hey catherine come on board

I dont' like it in wind i wanna go back home again
catherine these tears are drowning
the streetlights fall accross the sky like stars
and the last thing you find out is who you are
