Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds — Straight to You

[Verse 1] All the towers of ivory are crumbling And the swallows have sharpened their beaks [Pre-Chorus 1] This is the time of our great undoing This is the time that I'll come running [Chorus] Straight to you, for I am captured Straight to you, for I am captured One more time [Verse 2] Now the light in our window is fading The candle gutters on the ledge [Pre-Chorus 2] Well now sorrow, it comes a-stealing And I'll cry, girl, but I'll come a-running [Chorus] Straight to you, for I am captured Straight to you, for I am captured Once again [Verse 3] Gone are the days of rainbows And gone are the nights of swinging from the stars [Pre-Chorus 3] For the sea will swallow up the mountains And the sky will throw thunder-bolts and sparks [Chorus] Straight at you, but I'll come a-running Straight to you, but I'll come a-running One more time [Bridge] Now heaven has denied us its kingdom And the saints they're all drunk howling at the moon [Pre-Chorus 4] And the chariots of angels are colliding Well, I'll run, babe, but I'll come running [Chorus] Straight to you, for I am captured Straight to you, for I am captured One more time
