Nick Cave - Cassiel's Song Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • We've come to bring you home
  • Haven't we, Cassiel?
  • To cast aside your loss and all your sadness
  • And shuffle off that mortal coil and mortal madness
  • For we're here to pick you up and bring you home
  • Aren't we, Cassiel?
  • It's a place where you did not belong
  • Were time itself was mad and far too strong
  • Where life leapt up laughing and hit you head on
  • and hurt you, didn't it hurt you, Cassiel?
  • While time outran you and trouble flew toward you,
  • and you were there to greet it,
  • weren't you, foolish Cassiel?
  • But here we are, we've come to call you home
  • and here you'll stay never more to stray
  • Where you can kick off your boots of clay
  • can't you, Cassiel?
  • For death and you did recklessly collide
  • and time ran out of you
  • and you ran out of time,
  • didn't you, Cassiel?
  • and all the clocks, in all the world
  • may this once just skip a beat in memory of you
  • then again those damn clocks, they probably won't
  • will they, Cassiel?
  • One moment you are there and then strangely you are gone,
  • but on behalf of all of us here we are glad to have you home
  • Aren't we, dear Cassiel?
