Such Things Should Never Happen歌词
作词 : Nick Cave/Warren Ellis
作曲 : Nick Cave/Warren Ellis
Such things should never happen but we die
The swallow finds an oak to nest her young
Defenceless between the earth and the sky
Uncounted beneath a vast, indifferent sun
A mother holds her baby to her breast
She trusts in you yet does not dare to breathe
As the baby swallow falls from its nest
As the mighty oak does not appear to see
Such things should never happen but they do
In a darkened room, a mothеr cries
The swallow seeks to build its nest anеw
The oak tree lifts its branches to its eyes
