Lyrics Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds – Distant Sky

Nick Cave:
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

Else Torp:
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

Nick Cave:
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

Else Torp:
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
