"Nobody's Baby Now (Live At Alexandra Palace, 2020)" lyrics - NICK CAVE AND THE BAD SEEDS
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
[Chorus 1:]
I traveled 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 that 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
[Chorus 2:]
But there are some things even love don'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 the best
It's got the blue quilted violets across the breast
And these are my many letters
All torn to pieces by her long-fingered hand
I was her cruel hearted man
[Chorus 3:]
And even 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
Yeah, she's nobody's baby now
No, no, no
No, no, no, no
Oh no, no, no, no
No
