Lady, all the troubles are my fright, I disgust you.
Feel the power. You cut the truth into you.
Why? Do you think I'd hidden out? On this rely
I could kiss you, with lines of escape in my mouth.
Please, let me bring back this gifts of mine to the woman.
His eyes shined on my back as I slept and knew you.
You didn't leave it all. You made an even call.
My belly released the stars and tears between the
scars.
We're where we belong, it should end here,
until the end of time,
Beyond the moment that ends our bondage.
I am your failed husband contender,
I'm your loan shark of bliss.
This dream you've ridden on turns your world to explosions
You need to be alone to heal this bleeding stone.
Now, smell the rain of London, it still insists
That we beg for our purity.
As if we are pure in the rain of our contentment,
As if I can think of this no more.

Review about Vancouver If I was to die | Reviewer: Dunja from Sweden | 10/9/2008
If I was to die, this would be the last song I would want to hear. It's forever in my heart. Thank you Jeff for your wonderful musical gifts to this world! Wish you were still here.
The brilliant thing about Jeff Buckley's songs is that they can be interpreted in many different ways. But if I had to guess, this song is sort of the precursor to "Forget Her." Buckley is realizing his love for this particular woman is poison, but he's still incapable of cutting ties.
"On this rely-- I could kiss you with lines of escape in my mouth..."
That line really says it all, doesn't it? He knows he needs to escape, but he can't bring himself to.
This song speaks to my soul.
Can't Explain the brilliance | Reviewer: Brian Hubbard | 12/25/2007
Every time I listen to this song I am on the brink of tears and it has never been certain to me if its just the brilliance of his voice or the subconscious thrashing of his lyrics. I am stumped and eternally grateful. Thanks Jeff!
Can anyone tell me what the lyrics to "Vancouver" are about?'Cose the more I listen to it and try to understand,the more it seems to me like he's talking about a sexual experience he had with another man,...I could be wrong however,please cast some light on the subject.
Another one of my absolute favs from Jeff!!! Words can't sum up this great gift we have lost!!! Thanks Jeff for what you have written and recorded...it'll be cherished forever!
This song is a great example of Buckley's music. Great vocals, a voice that change everything is this song. The music correct. But this voice...
Absolutely exhilarating | Reviewer: Phil | 10/6/2005
Once again... a wonderful song from Jeff Buckley. Fast-paced, and undoubtedly rawer & edgier than Jeff's work on Grace, but probably as mind-blowing
"Vancouver" is attached to the posthumous album Sketches (for my sweetheart the drunk), which, by the way, everybody who loves Jeff Buckley's inspiring music should get a good look at
