Oh Catherine - Pere Ubu

Oh Catherine

I was out on the river

Stuck on a raft

Swept out to sea

Don’t know how to get back

Like a house on a hill

I remember you still

Oh Catherine

I was riding a blue train

Flat out on the rails

I looked out the window

I was living in hotels

A house on a hill

I remember you still

I ain’t ever getting home

You ain’t ever gonna know

How I tried to love you

I ain’t ever getting home

Now that I only know

What I used to know

It’s like I live in a ghost tale

Catherine

Ther’s a place in my heart

The yars don’t go

The days pass it by

You never grow old

Like a house on a hill

I remember you still
