Over the Rhine

Over the Rhine is an American, Ohio-based band, the core of which is the husband-and-wife team of pianist/guitarist/bassist Linford Detweiler and vocalist/guitarist Karin Bergquist. The band began as a quartet with guitarist Ric Hordinski and drummer Brian Kelley. Hordinski left the band in December 1996, and Kelley continued to play into 1997 before departing. The original foursome reunited in December 2008 at The Taft Theatre (in Cincinnati) to celebrate the 20th Anniversary of the formation of the band, and again in the summer of 2010 at Ric's studio, "the Monastery," to play the album "Good Dog Bad Dog" live, in its entirety. more »

The moon blind-sided the sky again
As we grab loose ends of the tide and then
The slippery slide
You know I can't say when
I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly
With rolling joy
Lazy as sin
Lying up in heaving with my special friend
And the space he's in
It could make a girl grin
In the beginning of a lifelong fling

I wrote down a dream
Folded the note
Slipped in the pocket of my tattered coat

I wrote down a dream
In invisible ink
It never was mine I'm beginning to think

I wrote down a dream
What more could I do
I drew myself a picture and the picture was you

I wrote myself a riddle
I said, "What I wouldn't do
To give something good to a love like you"

The mood blind-sided the sky again
As we grab loose ends of the tide and then
The slippery slide
You know I can't say when
I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly
With rolling joy
Lazy as sin
Lying up in heaven with my special friend
And the space he's in
It could make a girl grin
In the beginning of a lifelong fling

I wrote down a dream
Folded the note
Passed it to you, stepped in our boat

Sailed round the world
Hoping to find
More than the sum of what we left behind

I wrote down a dream
But what was it now?
And why does it all feel so distant somehow?

Did I take too long?
Did I get it wrong?
You're still the missing line in my favorite song

The moon blind-sided the sky again
As we grab loose ends of the tide and then
The slippery slide
You know I can't say when
I ever took a ride that could slap me this silly
With rolling joy
Lazy as sin
Lying up in heaven with my special friend
And the space he's in
It could make a girl sing
