Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Kindness Of Strangers lyrics

I left the corpses far behind and I escaped

A distant voice reminds me how

Desire fades

In a long, in a long, in a long moan

Those bodies buried in the sand

In bloodstained clothes

Were whithering hand in hand

Like a faded rose

In a long, in a long

In a long, long night-gown

In a long slow-down

In a long, long night-gown

In a long moan

I left a dead soul far behind and I ran further

Still this morning I think time

Can bring about murder

I saw those empty shadows bend

But I won't slump down

The battle made me loose [?] a friend

But I keep on walking

In a long, in a long

In a long, long night-gown

In a long slow-down

In a long, long night-gown

In a long moan

In a long, long night-gown

In a long slow-down

In a long, long night-gown

In a long moan

I left the corpses far behind and I escaped

A distant voice reminds me how

Desire fades

I left them far behind and they still scream

And you remind me how

Desire is
