East of Arizona west of New Orleans
Found a bleached skeleton in a pair of blue jeans
A bloody belt of shells across a cage of ribs
Sings Man is in love and loves what vanishes
And I would sail around the world just to get her back
Lay ten thousand miles of railroad track.
Sail around the world just to get her back
Man is in love and loves what vanishes.
Rise up dry bones, rise up and tell
Where home is found what makes us well.
Rise up dry bones and dancing round
Defy the dust in which you are found
oon enough they'll lay you underneath a tree
Like they'll do to me, like they'll do to me
It's for you that I've been given this epiphany
My sweet lily, my sweet lily
Till the organist cacophonous
Scares the sparrows from the trees
And the belfries bells bang boisterously
As a bird wings on the breeze round me… round me!
Then my lily white will be reunited
With the only lover she's ever really gonna need
And like the Mexican blanket in the living room
Ill keep her beating heart warm so she's not lonely…not lonely!
Rise up dry bones, rise up and tell
Where home is found what makes us well.
Rise up dry bones and dancing round
Defy the dust in which you are found.
