Born

Some of my favorite words and melodies come from Over The Rhine..
The words are here, but to get the real idea you've got to get ahold of their music.

I was born to laugh

I learned to laugh through my tears

I was born to love

I'm gonna learn to love without fear

~~~~~~~~~~

Pour me a glass of wine

Talk deep into the night

Who knows what we'll find

~~~~~~~~~~

Intuition, deja vu

The Holy Ghost haunting you

Whatever you got

I don't mind

~~~~~~~~~~

Put your elbows on the table

I'll listen as long as I am able

There's nowhere else I'd rather be

~~~~~~~~~~

Secret fears, the supernatural

Thank God for this new laughter

Thank God the joke's on me

~~~~~~~~~~

We've seen the landfill rainbow

We've seen the junkyard of love

Baby it's no place for you and me

~~~~~~~~~~

I was born to laugh

I learned to laugh through my tears

I was born to love

I'm gonna learn to love without fear
