Letra da Música: Far Away, So Close! - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Empty out your pockets
Toss the lot upon the floor
All those treasures, my friend
You don't need them anymore
Your days are all through dying
They gave all their ghosts away
So kiss close all your wounds
And call living life a day
For the planets gravitate around you
And the stars shower down around you
And the angels in heaven adore you
And the saints all stand and applaud you
So faraway
So faraway and yet so close


Say farewell to the passing of the years
Though all your sweet goodbyes will fall upon deaf ears
Kiss so softly the mouths of the ones you love
Beneath the September moon and the heavens above
And the world will turn without you
And history will soon forget about you
But the heavens they will reward you
And the saints will be there to escort you
So faraway
so faraway and yet so close


Do not grieve at the passing of mortality
For life's but a thing of terrible gravity
And the planets gravitate around you
And the stars shall dance about you
And the angels in heaven adore you
And the saints all stand and applaud you
So faraway
So faraway and yet so close
