(are You) The One That I've Been Waiting For? Lyrics - The Boatman's Call - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

I've felt you coming girl, as you drew near 

I knew you'd find me, cause I longed you here 

Are you my destiny? Is this how you'll appear? 

Wrapped in a coat with tears in your eyes? 

Well take that coat babe, and throw it on the floor 

Are you the one I've been waiting for? 

As you've been moving, surely toward me 

My soul has comforted and assured me 

That in time my heart it will reward me 

And that all will be revealed 

So I've sat and I've watched an ice-age thaw 

Are you the one I've been waiting for?

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Out of sorrow entire worlds have been built 

Out of longing great wonders have been willed 

They're only little tears, darling, let them spill 

And lay your head upon my shoulder 

Outside my window the world has gone to war 

Are you the one I've been waiting for? 

O we will know... won't we? 

The stars will explode in the sky 

But they don't... do they? 

Stars have their moment and then they die 

There's a man who spoke wonders though I've never met him 

He said, "He who seeks finds and who knocks will be let in" 

I think of you in motion and just how close you are getting 

And how every little thing anticipates you 

All down my veins my heart-strings call 

Are you the one I've been waiting for?
