Brompton Oratory by Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds

Brompton Oratory Lyrics

edit | print 
Up those stone steps I climb
Hail this joyful days return
Into its great shadowed vault I go
Hail the pentecostal morn

The reading is from luke 24
Where christ returns to his loved ones
I look at the stone apostles
Think that its alright for some

And I wish that I was made of stone
So that I would not have to see
A beauty impossible to define
A beauty impossible to believe

A beauty impossible to endure
The blood imparted in little sips
The smell of you still on my hands
As I bring the cup up to my lips

No God up in the sky
No devil beneath the sea
Could do the job that you did, baby
Of bringing me to my knees

Outside I sit on the stone steps
With nothing much to do
Forlorn and exhausted, baby
By the absence of you
Love this song? Put this box on your blog!
Lyrics
