Here's my first live experience with the song from the new album, Ghosteen - and it was MARVELOUS!! Amazing show altogether.... plz watch in HD. All rights belong to Nick Cave (I own nothing...) Please buy the record and listen to it!
probably one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard....and one that should have never been written. Thank you Nick for giving wings and life to topics that none of us should ever have to understand. I hope that this song heals all of those who need something to help explain all of the sadness and beauty that life offers.....
All through the night we drove and the wind caught her hair And we parked on the beach in the cool evening air Well, sometimes it's better not to say anything at all Your body is an anchor, never asked to be free Just want to stay in the business of making you happy Well I'm just waiting for you Waiting for you, waiting for you Waiting for you, waiting for you Waiting for you A priest runs through the chapel, all the calendars are turning A Jesus freak on the street says He is returning Well sometimes a little bit of faith can go a long, long way Your soul is my anchor, never asked to be freed Well sleep now, sleep now, take as long as you need 'Cause I'm just waiting for you Waiting for you, waiting for you Waiting for you, waiting for you Waiting for you To return To return To return
