Wonderful Life Lyrics

Nick Cave

Come in, babe Across these purple fields The sun has sunk behind you Across these purple fields
That idiot-boy in the corner Is speaking deviated truths Come on, admit it, babe Wonderful life
If you can find it If you can find it If you can find it It's a wonderful life that you bring Ooh, it's a wonderful thing
Speak our secret into your hands And hold it in between Plunge your hands into the water And drown it in the sea
There will be nothing between us, baby But the air that we breathe Don't cry It's a wonderful, wonderful life
If you can find it If you can find it If you can find it It's a wonderful life that you bring It's a wonderful, wonderful thing
We can build our dungeons in the air And sit and cry the blues We can stomp across this world With nails hammered through our shoes
We can join that troubled chorus Who criticize and accuse It don't matter much, no We got nothing much to lose
But this wonderful life, find it And when you find it And when you find it It's a wonderful life that you bring It's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful thing
Sometimes our secrets are all we've got Our lives we must defend Sometimes the air between us, babe Is unbearably thin
Sometimes, it's wise to lay down your gloves And just give in Come in, come in Come in, come in
To this wonderful life If you can find it And if you find it It's a wonderful life that you bring It's a wonderful, wonderful thing
It's a wonderful life It's a wonderful life It's a wonderful life ...
