Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Let us go now
My one true love
Call the gasman
Cut the power off
[Verse 2]
We can spread out
We can set out for the distant sky
See the sun, see it rising
In your eyes
[Verse 3]
Let us go now
My darling companion
Set out for the
Distant sky
See the sun, see it rising
See it rising
Rising in your eyes
[Verse 4]
Let us go now
My only companion
Set out for the
Distant sky
Soon the children
Will be rising, will be rising
This is not for our eyes
[Verse 5]
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
Written by: Nick Cave, Warren Ellis
