the witness song歌词

[ti:The witness song]
[ar:Nick Cave]
[00:09]Yeah, yeah
[00:13]Well, well
[00:19]I took a walk down to the port
[00:24]Where strangers meet and do consort
[00:28]All blinkered with desire
[00:32]And a winter fog moved thickly on
[00:35]A winter fog moved thickly on
[00:37]A winter fog moved thickly on
[00:43]Now, who will be the witness
[00:46]Who will be the witness
[00:48]Who will be the witness
[00:50]When the fog’s too thick to see
[00:57]And I saw a friend beside a wall
[01:00]Her hands were raised in supplication
[01:05]And her face I could not see at all
[01:09]And I raised my hands in rage
[01:14]And brought them down again
[01:18]And we entered through the eastern door
[01:20]And I entered through the eastern door
[01:23]And she entered through the eastern door
[01:29]Now, who will be the witness
[01:31]Who will be the witness
[01:33]Who will be the witness
[01:35]When you’re all to blind to see
[01:47]O yes, yes, yes
[02:00]And time gets somewhat muddled here
[02:04]But no matter, no matter
[02:08]Here come the events all tumbling down
[02:21]Now, beyond the wall was a great garden
[02:25]Into which we passed
[02:30]Me and my friend
[02:34]And the place was all overgrown with weeds
[02:42]And behold from its centre there rose a great fountain
[02:49]The fountain with the healing waters
[02:59]And we knelt down by the rim
[03:04]And I dipped my hand in
[03:08]And she dipped her hand in too
[03:16]And I said "Are you healed?"
[03:20]And she said "Well are you healed?"
[03:24]And I said "Yes, I’m healed"
[03:29]And she said "Well, yes I’m healed then too"
[03:33]And I said "Babe, you are a liar"
[03:36]"Babe, you are a liar"
[03:38]"Babe, you are a liar, too"
[03:53]Now, who will be the witness
[03:59]When you’re all to healed to see
[04:08]And I kissed her once, I kissed her twice
[04:12]And made my way to leave her
[04:16]And she raised her hand up to her face
[04:21]And brought it down again
[04:25]I said "That gesture, it will haunt me"
[04:27]"That gesture it will haunt me"
[04:29]And I left there by the eastern door
[04:31]She left there by the western door
[04:37]Now, who will be the witness there
[04:40]Who will be the witness
[04:44]When you’re blind and you can’t see
[04:46]Who will be the witness there
[04:49]Who will be the witness
[04:52]When you’re all so clean and you cannot see
[04:55]Who will be the witness
[04:57]Who will be the witness
[04:59]Who will be the witness
[05:01]Who will be the witness
[05:03]Who will be the witness there
[05:06]Who will be the witness
[05:09]When your friends are everywhere
[05:12]Who will be the witness
[05:14]Who will be the witness
[05:18]And your enemies have ceased to care
[05:21]Who will be the witness
[05:23]Who will be the witness
[05:25]Who will be the witness
[05:27]Who will be the witness
