A Body Goes Down - 2006 Remastered Version - Duncan Sheik

Once in a while

A man comes along

Even his failures were favorite songs

Oh to have made something so unsurpassed

As certain things fall away

So certain things last

A body goes down

In the Mississippi waters

Weighted by a beauty

Afraid of its light

Notify your holy men

Console your sons and daughters

And tell me one more time

What is just

What is right

Chances are good

We spread blasphemous lies

Safe to say nobody knew what was inside

Of course there is grace

And those halos of pain

Maybe he sang what he came here to sing

Speed on to the next world

Speed on to the next life

Better I'm sure by far

Orpheus driven

Treasures given

Heal the most broken of hearts

Speed on, speed on, speed on
