Marc Cohn - Olana Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • They say my final masterpiece
  • Was this house upon the hill
  • High above the great and mighty river
  • My hand could not hold the brushes
  • Yes I guess I lost my will
  • And you cant keep painting paradise forever
  • Oh forever
  • From the andes to niagara
  • To where we stand today
  • I drew the great creations of my master
  • til the oil and the canvas
  • Lord I threw them all away
  • And traded them for stone and brick and plaster
  • I traded them all for you
  • (winter wind blows and the river lies frozen at my feet)
  • I traded them all for you
  • (springtime come and the river wanna run above the street)
  • She came to me one night
  • While I was tossing in my dreams
  • She said shed give my family protection
  • I recall the night I died
  • Beneath her arches and her beams
  • I thanked her for the shelter and direction
  • I was lost until olana
  • (sun beat down on a summertime town -- he left me there)
  • I was lost until olana
  • (watching these hills turning gold for one more year)
  • Oh Ive been from jerusalem to rome
  • Now Im floating through these rooms tonight alone
  • And looking back on everything
  • All I ever wanted was a home
  • I was lost until olana
  • How sweet the sound
  • How sweet the sound
  • They say my final masterpiece
  • Was this house upon the hill
  • Chorus
