Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds - Nobody's Baby Now Lyrics
Ive searched the holy booksI tried to unravel the mystery of jesus christ, the saviourIve read the poets and the analystsSearched through the books on human behaviourI travelled this world aroundFor an answer that refused to be foundI dont know why and I dont know howBut shes nobodys baby nowI loved her then and I guess I love her stillHers is the face I see when a certain mood moves inShe lives in my blood and skinHer wild feral stare, her dark hairHer winter lips as cold as stoneYeah, I was her manBut there are some things love wont allowI held her hand but I dont hold it nowI dont know why and I dont know howBut shes nobodys baby nowThis is her dress that I loved bestWith the blue quilted violets across the breastAnd these are my many lettersTorn to pieces by her long-fingered handI was her cruel-hearted manAnd though Ive tried to lay her ghost downShes moving through me, even nowI dont know why and I dont know howBut shes nobodys baby nowShes nobodys baby nowNobodys baby nowShes nobodys baby now
