- NICK CAVE - Faraway So Close Lyrics
- Uploaded by LOVE4LYRICS at Pastebin.com
- Empty out your pockets, toss the lot upon the floor.
- All those treasures, my friend,
- you don't need them anymore.
- Your days are all through dying,
- they gave all their ghosts away,
- so kiss close all your wounds and call living life a day.
- For the planets gravitate around you,
- and the stars shower down around you,
- and the angels in heaven adore you,
- and the saints all stand and applaud you.
- so faraway,
- so faraway and yet so close.
- Say farewell to the passing of the years,
- though all your sweet goodbyes will fall upon deaf ears.
- Kiss so softly the mouths of the ones you love,
- beneath the September moon and the heavens above.
- And the world will turn without you,
- and history will soon forget about you,
- but the heavens they will reward you,
- and the saints will be there to escort you.
- So faraway,
- so faraway and yet so close.
- Do not grieve at the passing of mortality,
- for life's but a thing of terrible gravity.
- And the planets gravitate around you,
- and the stars shall dance about you,
- and the angels in heaven adore you,
- and the saints all stand and applaud you.
- So faraway,
- so faraway and yet so close.
