Grief Came Riding - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds (尼克·凯夫和坏种乐队)[00:00:00]
A grief came riding[00:00:25]
On the wind[00:00:28]
Up the sun on river Thames[00:00:31]
I was sitting on the bank with my mouth open[00:00:37]
When I felt it entering[00:00:42]
I began thinking about our wedding day[00:00:48]
And how love was a vow[00:00:54]
I was thinking about the chamber door[00:01:00]
Only we can enter now[00:01:04]
I began thinking about our ancient friends[00:01:12]
And of kissing them goodbye[00:01:18]
And then the wind blew under Battersea bridge[00:01:24]
And a tear broke from my eye[00:01:28]
I started thinking about London[00:01:35]
And nothing good ever came from this town[00:01:41]
And if the Thames weren't so filthy[00:01:47]
I would jump in the river and drown[00:01:51]
Don't be afraid[00:01:57]
Come on down[00:02:00]
I'm just sitting here[00:02:03]
Thinking loud[00:02:06]
A grief came riding[00:02:14]
On the wind[00:02:17]
Up the river where the bridges crouch[00:02:19]
Blowing people back and fall[00:02:25]
From the marital bed to the psychiatric couch[00:02:29]
Blowing people far apart[00:02:37]
Blowing others so they collide[00:02:43]
Blowing some poor bastard right out of the water[00:02:48]
Blowing another one over the side[00:02:53]
Hear the ancient iron bridge[00:03:00]
And listen to it groan[00:03:06]
With the weight of a thousand people[00:03:12]
Leaving or returning home[00:03:17]
To their failures[00:03:23]
To their bordoms[00:03:26]
To their husbands[00:03:29]
And their wifes[00:03:32]
Who are carving them up for dinner[00:03:35]
Before they even arrive[00:03:39]
Don't be afraid[00:03:44]
Come on down[00:03:48]
I'm just sitting here[00:03:51]
And thinking of love[00:03:53]
And look they just blow the water[00:04:25]
See the saviour of the human race[00:04:30]
Where the fishes and the frogs[00:04:36]
Has found his final resting place[00:04:40]
Don't be afraid[00:04:46]
Come on down[00:04:49]
I'm just sitting here[00:04:52]
Thinking of love[00:04:55]
