Wonderful Life
Nick Cave & The Bad Seed

Come in, babe, across these purple fields

The sun has sunk behind you across these purple fields

That idiot-boy in the corner is speaking deviated truths

Come on, admit it, babe, it's a wonderful life

If you can find it, if you can find it

If you can find it, it's a wonderful life that you bring

Ooh it's a wonderful thing

Speak our secret into your hands and hold it in between

Plunge your hands into the water and drown it in the sea

There will be nothing between us, baby, but the air that we breathe

Don't cry, it's a wonderful, wonderful life

If you can find it, if you can find it

If you can find it, it's a wonderful life that you bring

It's a wonderful, wonderful thing

We can build our dungeons in the air and sit and cry the blues

We can stomp across this world with nails hammered through our shoes

We can join that troubled chorus who criticise and accuse

It don't matter much, no we got nothing much to lose but this wonderful life

If you can find it, and when you find it

And when you find it, it's a wonderful life that you bring

It's a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful thing

Sometimes our secrets are all we've got with our lives we must defend

Sometimes the air between us, babe, is unbearably thin

Sometimes it's wise to lay down your gloves and just give in

Come in, come in, come in, come in to this wonderful life

If you can find it, and if you find it

It's a wonderful life that you bring

It's a wonderful, wonderful thing

It's a wonderful life, it's a wonderful life

It's a wonderful life, it's a wonderful life

It's a wonderful life, it's a wonderful life
