Caruso |
Infinity gives me chills |
So could the waters of Iceland |
But there’s a difference in finding diamonds in rust |
And rhinestones in a dishpan |
Miracles bowl me over |
And often will they do so |
Now I think I was asleep till I heard |
The voice of the great Caruso |
Bring infinity home |
Let me embrace it one more time |
Make it the lilies of the field |
Or Caruso in his prime |
A friend of mine gave me a tape |
She’d copied from a record disc |
It was made at the turn of the century |
And found in a jacket labeled «misc.» |
And midst cellos, harps, and flugelhorns |
With the precision of a hummingbird’s heart |
Was the lord of the monarch butterflies |
One-time ruler of the world of art |
Bring infinity home |
Let me embrace it one more time |
Make it the lilies of the field |
Or Caruso in his prime |
Yes, the king of them all was Enrico |
Whose singular chest could rival |
A hundred fervent Baptists |
Giving forth in a tent revival |
True he was a vocal miracle |
But that’s only secondary |
It’s the sould of the monarch butterfly |
That I find a little bit scary |
Bring infinity home |
Let me embrace it one more time |
Make it the lilies of the field |
Or Caruso in his prime |
Perhaps he’s just a vehicle |
To bear us to the hills of Truth |
That’s Truth spelled with a great big T |
And peddled in the mystic’s booth |
There are oh so many miracles |
That the western sky exposes |
Why go looking for lilacs |
When you’re lying in a bed of roses? |
Bring infinity home |
Let me embrace it one more time |
Make it the lilies of the field |
Or Caruso in his prime |
