I'll Love You Till The End Of The World Lyrics - Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

It was a miracle I even got outta Longwood alive 

This town full of men with big mouths and no guts 

I mean, if you can just picture it 

The whole third floor of the hotel gutted by the blast 

And the street below showered in shards of broken glass 

And all the drunks pourin' outta the dance halls 

Starin' up at the smoke and the flames 

And the blind pencil seller wavin' his stick 

Shoutin' for his dog that lay dead on the side of the road 

And me, if you can believe this, at the wheel of the car 

Closin' my eyes and actually prayin' 

Not to God above, but to you, sayin' 

Help me girl, help me girl 

I'll love you till the end of the world 

With your eyes black as coal 

And your long dark curls 

Some things we plan, we sit and we invent and we plot and cook up 

Others are works of inspiration, of poetry 

And it was this genius hand that pushed me up the hotel stairs 

To say my last goodbye 

To her hair white as snow and her pale blue eyes 

Sayin' "I gotta go, I gotta go 

The bomb and the bread basket are ready to blow" 

In this town of men with big mouths and no guts 

The pencil seller's dog spooked by the explosion 

And leapin' under my wheels 

As I careered outta Longwood on my way to you 

Waitin' in your dress, in your dress of blue 

I said thank you girl, thank you girl 

I'll love you till the end of the world 

With your eyes black as coal 

And your long dark curls 

And with the horses prancin' through the fields 

With my knife in my jeans and the rain on the shield 

I sang a song for the glory of the beauty of you 

Waitin' for me in your dress of blue 

Thank you girl, thank you girl 

I'll love you till the end of the world 

With your eyes black as coal 

And your long dark curls 

I said thank you girl, thank you girl 

I'll love you till the end of the world 

With your eyes black as coal 

And your long dark curls 

I said thank you girl, thank you girl 

I'll love you till the end of the world 

With your eyes black as coal 

And your long dark curls 

I said thank you girl, thank you girl 

I'll love you till the end of the world 

With your eyes black as coal 

And your long dark curls 

Thank you girl, thank you girl 

I'll love you till the end of the world 

With your eyes black as coal 

And your long dark curls
