NICK CAVE lyrics : "Wonderful Life"

Come in, babe
Across these purple fields
The sun has sunk behind you

Across these purple fields
That idiot-boy in the corner
Is speaking deviated truths

Come on, admit it, babe
It's a wonderful life
If you can find it

If you can find it
If you can find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring

Ooh it's a wonderful thing

Speak our secret into your hands

And hold it in between
Plunge your hands into the water
And drown it in the sea

There will be nothing between us, baby
But the air that we breathe
Don't cry

It's a wonderful, wonderful life
If you can find it
If you can find it

If you can find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful thing


We can build our dungeons in the air
And sit and cry the blues

We can stomp across this world
With nails hammered through our shoes
We can join that troubled chorus

Who criticise and accuse
It don't matter much
We got nothing much to lose

But this wonderful life
If you can find it
And when you find it

And when you find it
It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful thing


Sometimes our secrets are all we've got
With our lives we must defend

Sometimes the air between us, babe
Is unbearably thin
Sometimes it's wise to lay down your gloves

And just give in
Come in, come in
Come in, come in

To this wonderful life
If you can find it
And if you find it

It's a wonderful life that you bring
It's a wonderful, wonderful thing
It's a wonderful life

It's a wonderful life
