nick cave and the bad seeds - wake up my lover lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
wake up my lover with the long tangled hair
wake up for i have arrived
my house is in order and i’ve done to me
all the things that you said you require

[verse 2]
your fearless little man
has abandoned all his plans
that crumbled the moment that i kissed you

[verse 3]
on your small, hot mouth
and your downy, brown limbs
which are hymns to the glory that is you

[verse 4]
wake up my lover with the restless hands
that open and close as you sleep
i cut myself away from all the shackles and chains
now i’m free, but i’m shaky and weak

[verse 5]
i long to be beside you
i long to be beside you
make me feel what’s going down isn’t wrong

[verse 6]
open your eyes and tell me
that you will stay with me
before it really hits me just what i’ve done

[verse 7]
you say love is like a fire – well, no it ain’t
it ain’t like any fire i know
you say love is forever – well, ain’t that quaint
love’s forever and then it up and goes

[verse 8]
so wake up my lover with the caramel skin
i need to disabuse me of all my fears
the accusations, recriminations, the weeping, and the pleading
are still ringing in my ears

[verse 9]
wake up my lover with the curious smile
that plays on your mouth while you dream
i need to be near you again, i need to hear from you again
tell me we are right and holy and clean
