Nick Cave - Distant Sky lyrics

Let us go now, my one true love Call the gasman, cut the power out We can set out, we can set out for the distant skies Watch the sun, watch it rising in your eyes Let us go now, my darling companion Set out for the distant skies See the sun, see it rising See it rising, rising in your eyes They told us our gods would outlive us They told us our dreams would outlive us They told us our gods would outlive us But they lied Let us go now, my only companion Set out for the distant skies Soon the children will be rising, will be rising This is not for our eyes
