Blue Rodeo - Beautiful Blue

How many times have you opened up this skull
With your delicate stone
And laughed while my blood splashes
Down to the ground
She drinks me up like a parched old bone
I curse you for the pain
And thank you for making me whole again

(chorus)
I am hopelessly
Shamelessly
Anointed with you
There's no escaping
Your beautiful blue

The wind blows hot on my flesh
Scented with jasmine and roses
Ringing with bells
And the flutter of a hummingbird
You go to speak
But the wind blows away your words
And from your sweet mouth
So many beautiful colours swirl

(chorus)

Into your blood stained hands
A white eagle feather descends
And all creation sings
And I am remembering

(chorus)
