sad waters (live at alexandra palace, 2020) - nick cave & the bad seeds lyrics
[verse 1]
down the road i look and there runs mary
hair of gold and lips like cherries
we go down to the river where the willows weep
take a naked root for a lovers seat
that rose out of the bitten soil
but sound to the ground by creeping ivy coils
o mary you have seduced my soul
and i don’t know right from wrong
forever a hostage of your child’s world
[verse 2]
and then i ran my tin*cup heart along
the prison of her ribs
and with a toss of her curls
that little girl goes wading in
rollin her dress up past her knee
turning these waters into wine
then she platted all the willow vines
[verse 3]
mary in the shallows laughing
over where the carp dart
spooked by the new shadows that she cast
across these sad waters and across my heart
