The Pedlar arrived on a cold day. With no one to call on and no one to stay. Considered the dream that may become. To stand on the bridge until his body felt numb.
Stand under fountain. Cool skin, wash clean. Wash him from me. . Along comes the wind. A big bone shaker. Blows off my clothes. Completely naked. What to do.
I'd like to lose my?_. Consult the spiderweb for direction. Suddenly the news comes out to play. We look for beauty beyond imperfection. . I'd kill my creation to right the relation.
When will we ever meet. Not in this life. When will I be a bird. Is it this life. White doves only see. From up high. When will another bird. Kiss my mind.
When winter suspends. The summer charade. It's hard to abide this. And try to persuade. . Someday when I can speak clearly. A storm will rise. If you should pass by.
The beauty of her, under electric light. The beauty of her, under electric light. Tears my heart out every time. . Dawn there waiting, right outside. Dawn there waiting, right outside.
Flying. I'm flying. Hitting heavens high. I'm head on brake too low. . Floating. I'm floating. Hanging below the sea. I'm telling you look at me. . Ecstasy.
Oyster pearl, you easy girls. You're flapping in, you're shouting. You're dead good. All the men say. Legs wide hips swinging like a doorway. Easy, easy, easy.
I caught it in the face. Coming around again. I thought it was worth waiting. You're caught up in my head. Wet sides from time to time. But mostly I'm just dry.
Everybody got a right to go. Day tripping at a quarter to noon. The bus stops on the mountaintop. And the villagers are playing a traditional tune. Ancient goddess in the form of a truck.
Tell him I'm driving, it's alright. Turn on this wheel. Turn on headlights. A hundred different bibles by my side. In my white gown. I go flying down.
Put on that dress. I'm going out dancing. Starting off red. Gleam and sparkling he'll see me. Music play make me dreamy for dancing. Must be a way that I can dress to please him.
In a dream I saw you taking control. Treading lightly upon my soul. It's the pain that makes me want to call your name. When I wake up to another day.
We shouldnt be alone in this place, its a big mistake. What the hell we doing together?. Dont tell me its a risk we take. My whole bodys shaking like a leaf in stormy weather.
Tiny heart flutter between my fingers and my thumb. Youre very in trouble before youve began. I see your tiny heart worrying, a turning of wheels. Just grab on to something and dig in your heels.
I lost my heart. Under the bridge. To that little girl. So much to me. And now I'm old. And now I holler. She'll never know. Just what I found. . That blue eyed girl.
The summer sun plays on the ground. I feel it in my leaves. The sap is rising up my veins. Theres pollen on the breeze. . I saw it all crystal clear. I know who brought those children here.
( nick cave ). . When you're sad and you're lonely. And you haven't got a friend. Just remember that death is not the end. . And all that you hold sacred.
I'll carve a song out of notes of stone. My tune-cut will last generations long. And it will be one to remember me by. When I am dead and gone. . Empires may fall, and the maps might change.
