Nick Cave - She Passed By My Window lyrics

rate me

She passed by my window

Her eyes were all aglow

And bent to pick her glove she'd dropped

From the bright and brittle snow

Nature had spoken it in the Spring

With apple, plum and brand new pear

Have you time for my company?

No, I said, I have none to spare

You gotta sanctify my love

You gotta sanctify my love

You gotta sanctify my love

I ain't no lover-boy

For apple, plum and brand new pear

Soon wither on the ground

She slapped the snow from off her glove

And moved on without a sound

You gotta sanctify my love

You gotta sanctify my love

You gotta sanctify my love

I ain't no lover-boy
