Nick Cave & The Bad Seed
What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I?m so far away from you
2
Pacing up and down my room
3
Does Jesus only love a man who loses?
4
Turn on my radio
5
There's some cat on the saxophone
6
Laying down a litany of excuses
7
The madhouse longing in my baby's eyes
8
She rubs a lamp between her thighs
9
And hopes the genie comes out singing
10
And she lives in some forgotten song
11
And moves like she is zombie strong
12
Breathes steady as the pendulum keeps swinging
13
You better hold on to yourself
14
Well, cities rust and fall to ruin
15
Factories close and cars go cruising
16
In and around the borders of her vision
17
And she says, oh woah, woah, woah, woah
18
As Jesus makes the flowers grow
19
All around the scene of her collision
20
Oh you know I would, yes, I would
21
I would hold on to yourself
22
'Cause in the middle of the night
23
I try my best to chase outside
24
The phantoms and the ghosts and the fairy girls
25
'1001 Nights' like this she mutters, ?Open sesame?
26
And 'Ali Baba And His Forty Thieves'
27
Launch her off the face of the world
28
Well, you know one day I'll come back
29
And I?ll hold on to yourself, to yourself
30
Oh yeah, hold on to yourself
31
Oh babe, I?m a thousand miles away
32
And I just don?t know what to say
33
?Cause Jesus only loves a man who bruises
34
But darling we can clearly see
35
It?s all life and fire and lunacy
36
And excuses and excuses and excuses
37
Well, you know if I could I would
38
Yeah, I would lie right down
39
And I?d hold on to yourself
40
Yeah, I would lie right down
41
And I would hold on to yourself
42
One day I?ll come back to you
43
And I?ll hold on to yourself
44
Yeah, I?m gonna come back
45
Gonna lie down
46
And I?ll hold on to yourself
47
Yeah, to yourself, self, to yourself
