" (I'll Love You) Till the End of the World"

                      --Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds



It was a miracle I even got out of Longwood alive,
this town full of men with big mouths and no guts;
I mean if you can just picture it,
  the whole third floor of the hotel gutted by the blast
  and the street below showered in shards of broken glass,
 and all the drunks pouring out of the dance halls
   staring up at the smoke and the flames;
  and the blind pencil seller waving his stick
  shouting for his dog that lay dead on the side of the road;
and me, if you can believe this,
at the wheel of the of the car
  closing my eyes and actually praying;
   not to god above but to you,
    saying:

     help me, girl; help me, girl
     I'll love you till the end of the world
     with your black as coal
     and your long dark curls

some things we plan,
 we sit and we invent and we plot and cook up;
others are works of inspiration, of poetry;
and it was this genius hand that pushed me up the hotel stairs
  to say my last goodbye
    to a hair as white as snow and of pale blue eyes
      saying:
         I gotta go; I gotta go,
         the bomb in the bread basket are ready to blow

in this town of men with big mouths and no guts,
the pencil seller's dog, spooked by the explosion, leaping under my wheels
 as I careered out of Longwood on my way to you
  waiting in your dress, in your dress of blue

     I said:
      thank you, girl; thank you, girl
      I'll love you till the end of the world
      with your eyes black as coal
      and your long, dark curls

and with the horses prancing through the fields,
with my knife in my jeans and the rain on the shield;
I sang a song for the glory of the beauty of you
 waiting for me
  in your dress of blue

    thank you, girl.  thank you, girl
    I'll love you till the end of the world
    with your eyes black as coal
    and your long, dark curls

  I said:
      thank you, girl; thank you, girl
      I'll love you till the end of the world
      with your eyes black as coal
      and your long, dark curls

  I said:
      thank you, girl; thank you, girl
      I'll love you till the end of the world
      with your eyes black as coal
      and your long, dark curls

  I said:
      thank you, girl; thank you, girl
      I'll love you till the end of the world
      with your eyes black as coal
      and your long, dark curls

    thank you, girl; thank you, girl
    I'll love you till the end of the world
    with your eyes black as coal
    and your long, dark curls
