All the towers of Ivory are crumbling And the swallows have sharpened their beaks This is the time of our great undoing This is the time that I’ll come running
Straight to you For I am captured One more time
The light in our window is fading The candle gutters on the ledge Well now sorrow, it comes a-stealing And I’ll cry, girl but I’ll come a running
Straight to you For I am captured Straight to you For I am captured Once again
Gone are the days of rainbows Gone are the nights of swinging from the stars For the sea will swallow up the mountains And the sky will throw thunder-bolts and sparks
Straight to you But I’ll come a running Straight to you But I’ll come a running One more time
Heaven has denied us its kingdom The saints are drunk howling at the moon The chariots of angels are colliding Well, I’ll run, babe, but I’ll come running
Straight to you For I am captured Straight to you For I am captured One more time
作曲 : Nick Cave Josh Groban - Straight to You
All the towers of Ivory are crumbling And the swallows have sharpened their beaks This is the time of our great undoing This is the time that I’ll come running
Straight to you For I am captured One more time
The light in our window is fading The candle gutters on the ledge Well now sorrow, it comes a-stealing And I’ll cry, girl but I’ll come a running
Straight to you For I am captured Straight to you For I am captured Once again
Gone are the days of rainbows Gone are the nights of swinging from the stars For the sea will swallow up the mountains And the sky will throw thunder-bolts and sparks
Straight to you But I’ll come a running Straight to you But I’ll come a running One more time
Heaven has denied us its kingdom The saints are drunk howling at the moon The chariots of angels are colliding Well, I’ll run, babe, but I’ll come running
Straight to you For I am captured Straight to you For I am captured One more time
