German Statue

Oh I think I'm falling under Swore I wouldn't give in Oh if God knows who I'm looking for He did a fine job on him And I keep telling myself That it would've been better if she never left him Cause he's just standing there all lonesome Drawing me in And the worst of it is When I try to look away, the ancient wisdom in his eyes Calls to me I'm a hopeless spectator and he is Like a German statue I wander through a bewildering maze And he's at the portico Waiting for me And then the hedges disappear And the attraction is crystal clear As he's regally standing there Like a German statue And I realize I'm not going anywhere Without my German statue And I keep telling myself That it would've been better if she never left him Cause he's just standing there all lonesome Drawing me in And the worst of it is When I try to look away, the ancient wisdom in his eyes Calls to me I'm a hopeless spectator and he is Like a German statue He's an exhibit at the Louvre I'd pay any ticket just to see his face More remarkable than the Mona Lisa Or the Nike of Samothrace He's not a god, I know But he's a saint And I wanna rest inside the engraving Of his name His perfect imperfection, my classical obsession Matchless in design, fashion of the divine And if his statue fractures, it'd be my worst disaster So when his marble rusts, I'll join him in the dust And I keep telling myself That it would've been better if she never left him Cause he's just standing there all lonesome Drawing me in And the worst of it is When I try to look away, the ancient wisdom in his eyes Calls to me I'm a hopeless spectator and he is Like a German statue He's an exhibit at the Louvre I'd pay any ticket just to see his face More remarkable than the Mona Lisa Or the Nike of Samothrace He's not a god, I know But he's a saint And I wanna rest inside the engraving Of his name Yeah I wanna claim the identity Of his name I wander through a bewildering maze And he's at the portico Waiting for me
