nick cave & the bad seeds - song of the lake lyrics

Loading...

on the shore of the lake an old man sat
and watched a woman bathing
with its golden touch the light was such
that the moment was worth saving

and he sang the song of the lake
the song of the lake
and all the king’s horses, and all—
ah, never mind, never mind

he knew that he would dissolve
if he followed her into the lake
but also knew that if he remained
upon the shore he would, in time, evaporate

he sang the song of the lake
the song of the lake
and all the king’s horses—
ah, never mind, never mind

he knew that even though he had found
heaven such as described in the ancient scrolls
still he felt the drag of h+ll
upon his old and mortal soul

and he sang the song of the lake
and all the king’s horses—
oh lord, never mind, never mind
for every evil under the sun
if there be one, seek it till you find
for there’s either a remedy or there is none
and if there is none, never mind, never mind
never mind, never mind
ah, never mind
never mind

oh never mind, never mind, never mind
cause all the king’s horses and all the king’s men
couldn’t put us back together again
oh my darling, well, where will we go now?
oh my darling, where do we go?
ah, never mind, never mind
and what do we do now?
oh, never mind, never mind
oh, my sweet darling, never mind
