Girl In Amber
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
Some go and some stay behind
Some never move at all
Girl in amber, trapped forever
Spinning down the hall
Let no part of her go unremembered
Clothes across the floor
Girl in amber, lumber slumber
Shuts the bathroom door
The phone, the phone, the phone
It rings, it rings, it rings no more
The song, the song, the song
It spins since 1984
The phone, the phone, the phone
It rings, the phone, it rings no more
The song, the song
It's been spinning now since 19
And if you want to bleed, just bleed
And if you want to bleed, just bleed
And if you want to bleed, don't breathe a word
Just step away and let the world spin
And now in turn, you turn, you kneel
Lace up his shoes, your little blue-eyed boy
Take him by his hand, go move
And spin him down the hall
I get lucky, I get lucky 'cause I tried again
I knew the world, it would stop spinning
Now since you've been gone
I used to think that when you died
You kind of wandered the world
In a slumber till you crumbled
Were absorbed into the earth
Well, I don't think that anymore
The phone, it rings no more
The song, the song
It spins now since 1984
The song, the song, the song
It spins, it's been a spinning now
And if you'll hold me
I will tell you that you know that
And if you want to leave, don't breathe
And if you want to leave, don't breathe
And if you want to leave, don't breathe a word
And let the world turn
The song, the song, it spins
The song, it spins, it spins no more
The phone, it rings, it rings
And you won't stay
Don't touch me
Don't touch me
Don't touch me
Don't touch me
