lirik lagu grief came riding – nick cave and the bad seeds
a grief came riding
on the wind
up the [solemn] river thames
i was sittin’ on the bank with my mouth open
when i felt it entering
i began thinkin’ about our wedding day
and how love was a vow
i was thinkin’ about the chamber door
only we can enter now
i began thinkin’ about our ancient friends
and of kissin’ them goodbye
and then the wind blew under battersea bridge
and a tear broke from my eye
i started thinkin’ about london
[how] nothing good ever came from this town
and if the thames weren’t so filthy
i would jump in the river and drown
don’t be afraid
come on down
i’m just sittin’ here
thinking loud
[a grief came riding on the wind
up the river where the bridges crouch
blowin’ people back and forth
from the marital bed to the psychiatric couch]
blowin’ people far apart
blowin’ others so they collide
blowin’ some poor b-st-rd right out of the water
blowin’ another one over the side
hear the ancient iron bridge
and listen to it groan
with the weight of a thousand people
leavin’ or returning home
to their failures
to their bordoms
to their husbands
and their [wives]
who are carving them up for dinner
before they even arrive
don’t be afraid
come on down
i’m just sittin’ here
[thinking loud]
now look there just [below] the water
see the saviour of the human race,
[with] the fishes and the frogs,
has found his final resting place
don’t be afraid
come on down
i’m just sittin’ here
[thinking loud]
