Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Sweetheart Come

Come over here, babe

It ain't that bad

I don't claim to understand

The troubles that you've had

But the dogs you say they fed you to

Lay their muzzles in your lap

And the lions that they led you to

Lie down and take a nap

The ones you fear are wind and air

And I love you without measure

It seems we can be happy now

Be it better late than never

Sweetheart, come

Sweetheart, come

Sweetheart, come

Sweetheart, come to me

The burdens that you carry now

Are not of your creation

So let's not weep for their evil deeds

But for their lack of imagination

Today's the time for courage, babe

Tomorrow can be for forgiving

And if he touches you again with his stupid hands

His life won't be worth living

Sweetheart, come

Sweetheart, come

Sweetheart, come

Sweetheart, come to me

Walk with me now under the stars

For it's a clear and easy pleasure

And be happy in my company

For I love you without measure

Walk with me now under the stars

It's a safe and easy pleasure

It seems we can be happy now

It's late but it ain't never

It's late but it ain't never

It's late but it ain't never
