Holy Water Lyrics


Blue girl
In a summer dress in the greenhouse
Where she overslept dreaming of an ocean
Like a meadow
But wet, wet with holy waterBlue girl
In the shallows floating completely bare
We fell together cos good love is rare
And in the dying light a kerosene sun
Burns warmer than none
Holy water, holy waterSleeplessness
In the deepest night
Her smallest fear becomes a reef of death
And the Blue girl's maiden voyage
Is shipwrecked and sunk in holy waterWe go swimming in holy water
Floating in holy water
We fell together cos good love is rare
Holy water soaked through her hair
Holy water, holy waterBlue girl

In a summer dress in the greenhouse
Where she overslept dreaming of an ocean
Like a meadow
But wet, wet with holy water
We go swimming in holy water
Lying in the shade of the tree of man
We fell together cos good love is rare
Holy water soaked through her yellow hair
Holy water, holy water

The band originated in Perth, Western Australia in the late 1970s. They went through various line-up changes until the early 1980s when they moved to Sydney and later Melbourne and released their first LP Treeless Plain. The band toured extensively in Europe and caught the attention of the UK music press, being featured on the cover of NME twice. Four albums followed - Born Sandy Devotional, In The Pines, Calenture and The Black Swan - before the group disbanded in 1989. David McComb and "Evil" Graham Lee joined The Blackeyed Susans while Martyn P Casey joined Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.
