Píseň: Nobodys Baby Now

Interpret:
Nick Cave
Album:
Let Love In
I've searched the holy books 
I tried to unravel the mystery of Jesus Christ, 
the saviour 
I've read the poets and the analysts 
Searched through the books on human behaviour 
I travelled this world around 
For an answer that refused to be found 
I don't know why and I don't know how 
But she's nobody's baby now 


I loved her then and I guess I love her still 
Hers is the face I see when a certain mood moves in 
She lives in my blood and skin 
Her wild feral stare, her dark hair 
Her winter lips as cold as stone 
Yeah, I was her man 
But there are some things love won't allow 
I held her hand but I don't hold it now 
I don't know why and I don't know how 
But she's nobody's baby now 


This is her dress that I loved best 
With the blue quilted violets across the breast 
And these are my many letters 
Torn to pieces by her long-fingered hand 
I was her cruel-hearted man 
And though I've tried to lay her ghost down 
She's moving through me, even now 
I don't know why and I don't know how 
But she's nobody's baby now 
She's nobody's baby now 
Nobody's baby now 
She's nobody's baby now
