Nick Cave - Wonderful Life Lyrics
Come in, babeAcross these purple fieldsThe sun has sunk behind youAcross these purple fieldsThat idiot-boy in the cornerIs speaking deviated truthsCome on, admit it, babeIt's a wonderful lifeIf you can find itIf you can find itIf you can find itIt's a wonderful life that you bringOoh it's a wonderful thingSpeak our secret into your handsAnd hold it in betweenPlunge your hands into the waterAnd drown it in the seaThere will be nothing between us, babyBut the air that we breatheDon't cryIt's a wonderful, wonderful lifeIf you can find itIf you can find itIf you can find itIt's a wonderful life that you bringIt's a wonderful, wonderful thingWe can build our dungeons in the airAnd sit and cry the bluesWe can stomp across this worldWith nails hammered through our shoesWe can join that troubled chorusWho criticise and accuseIt don't matter muchWe got nothing much to loseBut this wonderful lifeIf you can find itAnd when you find itAnd when you find itIt's a wonderful life that you bringIt's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful thingSometimes our secrets are all we've gotWith our lives we must defendSometimes the air between us, babeIs unbearably thinSometimes it's wise to lay down your glovesAnd just give inCome in, come inCome in, come inTo this wonderful lifeIf you can find itAnd if you find itIt's a wonderful life that you bringIt's a wonderful, wonderful thingIt's a wonderful lifeIt's a wonderful life
