Cathedrals Lyrics - So You Think You Can Dance

In the shadows of tall buildings 

Of fallen angels on the ceilings 

Oily feathers in bronze and concrete 

Faded colors, pieces left incomplete 

The line moves slowly past the electric fence 

Across the borders between continents 

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome 

There is a feeling that you should just go home 

And spend the lifetime finding out just where that is 

In the shadows of tall buildings 

The architecture is slowly peeling 

Marble statues and glass dividers 

Someone is watching all of the outsiders 

The line moves slowly through the numbered gate 

Past the mosaic of the head of state 

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome 

There is a feeling that you should just go home 

And spend the lifetime finding out just where that is 

In the shadows of tall buildings 

Of open arches endlessly kneeling 

Sonic landscapes echoing vistas 

Someone is listening from a safe distance 

The line moves slowly into a fading light 

A final moment in the dead of night 

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome 

There is a feeling that you should just go home 

And spend the lifetime finding out just where that is 

In the cathedrals of New York and Rome 

There is a feeling that you should just go home 

And spend the lifetime finding out just where that is
