Eberhard Schoener Rhine Bow Lyrics

Rhine Bow Lyrics

The red-by-nines

 Above the Rhine

 The clouds gripped of the drifting mists

 It was useless

 And who over the ruins of his life

 Persued its fleeting, fluttering signifigance

 While he suffered its seemingless meaninglessness

 And lived in seeming madness

 

 And who over the ruins of his life

 Persued its fleeting, fluttering signifigance

 While he suffered its seeming meaninglessness

 And lived in seeming madness

 And who walked in secret the last turn of the labyrinth

 Ruination!

 

 The golden trail was blazed

 And I was reminded

 Of the eternal, of shipmen and their stars

 For a day I could breath once more and live

 And face existence

 Without the need to suffer torment,

 Fear, or shame

 

 The red-by-nines

 Above the Rhine

 The clouds gripped of the drifting mists

 It was useless

 And who over the ruins of his life

 Persued its fleeting, fluttering signifigance

 While he suffered its seemingless meaninglessness

 And lived in seeming madness

 

 And who over the ruins of his life

 Persued its fleeting, fluttering signifigance

 While he suffered its seeming meaninglessness

 And lived in seeming madness

 And who hoped in secret at the last turn of the labyrinth

 For revelation
