Jesus Alone (Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds)

You fell from the sky Crash landed in a field Near the river Adur Flowers spring from the ground Lambs burst from the wombs of their mothers In a hole beneath the bridge She convalesce, she fashioned masks of clay and twigs You cried beneath the dripping trees Ghost song lodged in the throat of a mermaid With my voice I am calling you You're a young man waking Covered in blood that is not yours You're a woman in a yellow dress Surrounded by a charm of hummingbirds You're a young girl full of forbidden energy Flickering in the gloom You're a drug addict lying on your back In a Tijuana hotel room With my voice I am calling you With my voice I am calling you You're an African doctor harvesting tear ducts You believe in God, but you get no special dispensation for this belief now You're an old man sitting by a fire, hear the mist rolling off the sea You're a distant memory in the mind of your creator, don't you see? With my voice I am calling you With my voice I am calling you Let us sit together until the moment comes With my voice I am calling you Let us sit together in the dark until the moment comes With my voice I am calling you With my voice I am calling you With my voice I am calling you With my voice I am calling you
