Текст (слова) песни: Nick Cave and The Bad Seeds - Grief Came Riding
A grief came riding On the wind Up the sun on river Thames I was sittin` on the bank with my mouth open When I felt it entering
I began thinkin` about our wedding day And how love was a vow I was thinkin` about the chamber door Only we can enter now
I began thinkin` about our ancient friends And of kissin` them goodbye And then the wind blew under Battersea bridge And a tear broke from my eye
I started thinkin` about London And nothing good ever came from this town and if the Thames weren`t so filthy I would jump in the river and drown
Don`t be afraid Come on down I`m just sittin` here Thinking loud
NOW look THERE just blow the water See the saviour of the human race Where the fishes and the frogs Has found his final resting place Blowin` people far apart Blowin` others so they collide Blowin` some poor bastard right out of the water blowin` another one over the side
Hear the ancient iron bridge And listen to it groan with the weight of a thousand people Leavin` or returning home
To their failures To their bordoms To their husbands And their wife`s who are carving them up for dinner before they even arrive
Don`t be afraid Come on down I`m just sittin` here And thinkin` of love
And look they just blow the water See the saviour of the human race Where the fishes and the frogs Has found his final resting place
Don`t be afraid Come on down I`m just sittin` here Thinkin` of love
