Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - Hold On To Yourself Lyrics
I'm so far away from you
Pacing up and down my room
Does Jesus only love a man who loses?
I turn on the radio
There's some cat on the saxophone
There's madhouse longing in my baby's eyes
She rubs the lamp between her thighs
And hopes the genie comes out singing
She lives in some forgotten song
And moves like she is zombie-strong
Breathes steady as the pendulum keeps swinging
You better hold on to yourself
Well, cities rust and fall to ruin
In around the borders of her vision
She says ooh
As Jesus makes the flowers grow
All around the scene of her collision
You know I would, yes, I would
I would hold on to yourself
In the middle of the night
I try my best to chase outside
The phantoms and the ghosts and fairy-girls
On 1001 nights like these
She mutters open sesame and Ali Baba and his forty thieves
Launch her off the face of the world
You know one day I'll come back and I'd hold on to yourself
To yourself, I'd hold on to yourself
Ooh baby, I'm a 1000 miles away
And I just don't know what to say
Cause Jesus only loves a man who bruises
But darling, we can clearly see
It's all life and fire and lunacy
And excuses and excuses and excuses
Well, you know if I could, I would
I'd lie right down and I'd hold on to yourself
Yeah, I would lie right down and I would hold on to yourself
One day I'll come back to you and I'd hold on to yourself
Yeah, I'm gonna come back, gonna lie down
And I would hold on to yourself
Yeah, to yourself

My dream is that Victoria M L, my love ,my darling, the air which I need, the person who change me, return to me soon. We are fans of Nick. I LOVE YOU VICKY. I MISS YOU TOO.
The master of urban Gothic and melancholia,
He sounds like Bruce Springsteen here

Love and loss, of God and other loved ones.
**Pacing up and down in my room. And learn to living in my own..... **
Bowie Hang on to yourself. I'm fucking trying to.
I used to think the background noise was a recorded sample of gulls on Brighton Pier or wherever, but as it turns out it's Warren Ellis' violin.
really? that's amazing!!
Incredible
♥️♥️♥️♥️👍🏻🎶🎶🎸
🇭🇷
This song is an absolute masterpiece from one of the all time great artists of our age. He rocks my world on so many levels
What a grower of a tune
Ennio Morricone and in a good way, too...
wow, really, wow
what a mysterious man
an enigma
a mad genius
so twisted but so beautiful
so dark but brings so much light into my life

Ник с группой создают уникальные музыкальнын зарисовки, полотна, истории
how bloody awesome is this bloke
Music reminds me of Sister Morphine from Rolling Stones. But if course it's different.
Perfect for dying in peace
We need this kind of music too eh
I'm so far away from you
I'm pacing up and down my room
Does Jesus only love a man who loses?
I turn on the radio
There's some cat on the saxophone
Laying down a litany of excuses
There's madhouse longing in my baby's eyes
She rubs a lamp between her thighs
And hopes the genie comes out singing
And she lives in some forgotten song
And moves like she is zombie-strong
Breathes steady as the pendulum keeps swinging
You better hold on to yourself
Well, cities rust and fall to ruin
Factories close and cars go cruising
In and around the borders of her vision
She says oh woah woah woah
As Jesus makes the flowers grow
All around the scene of her collision
Oh you know, yes, I would
I would hold on to yourself
In the middle of the night
I try my best to chase outside
The phantoms and the ghosts and the fairy-girls
On 1001 nights like this
She mutters open sesame and Ali Baba and his forty thieves
Launch her off the face of the world
Well, you know
Oh baby, I'll come back
And I'll hold on to yourself
Babe, I'm 1000 miles away
And I just don't know what to say
‘Cause Jesus only loves a man who bruises
But darling we can clearly see
It's all life and fire and lunacy
And excuses and excuses and excuses
Well, you know if I could I would
Yeah, I would lie right down
And I'd hold on to yourself
Yeah, I would lie right down
And I would hold on to yourself
One day I'll come back to you
And I'll hold on to yourself
Yeah, I'm gonna come back
Gonna lie down
And I'll hold on to yourself
I'm so far away from you
I'm pacing up and down my room
Does Jesus only love a man who loses?
I turn on the radio
There's some cat on the saxophone
Laying down a litany of excuses
There's madhouse longing in my baby's eyes
She rubs a lamp between her thighs
And hopes the genie comes out singing
And she lives in some forgotten song
And moves like she is zombie-strong
Breathes steady as the pendulum keeps swinging
You better hold on to yourself
Well, cities rust and fall to ruin
Factories close and cars go cruising
In and around the borders of her vision
She says oh woah woah woah
As Jesus makes the flowers grow
All around the scene of her collision
Oh you know, yes, I would
I would hold on to yourself
In the middle of the night
I try my best to chase outside

TROPPO, TROPPO BRAVO E BELLO
Une merveille
U can't even bring myself to tell you about the add I've just witnessed. I struggle to see how utubes associates the crappy bands on videos of the world's best art
Da li može nešto da bude ovoliko dobro?
Funny, Bowie also has a Hang on to yrslf!
Brilliant
A special Poet of ours
The song ,,,,,,,,, lyrics performance meaning music, ,,,,,
when nobody is around and you are really really alone, so in the middle of the night... then comes Nick to hold on and to remember you to all the beauty behind pain, it aches and than you go on ...this song is a gift
What an amazing musician!
But darling we can clearly see
its all life and fire and lunacy
And excuses and excuses and excuses....
I can't stop to listen.
My life
Sunshine if you are reading this then please do keep me in your thoughts for sometime.
Take a deep breath and take my name.
Close your eyes and try to remember the time we laughed a lot.
Now please smile for a moment.
Put your hand on your heart.
try to feel that we are hugging one another.
Please stop now there is no need to think further.
or Love will return again.
and what love will give us.
confusion to you and for me pain.
let this moment subside.
just look at your material wealth and take pride.
forget me again.
But darling, we can clearly see It's all life and fire and lunacy And excuses and excuses and excuses...there has to be a better way for this civilization...PROLIX,PROLIX.
Always the poet
Thanks you my brother. It s such a great song. And Nick Cave' s voice is so deep.

I only discovered Nice cave about twelve months ago .i am totally blown away with him just can't get enough a poet and a visionary.Hey, I'm 60 years old and i cant believe i never discovered him sooner.
@Simon Cole i know,he still seems esoteric,but thats ok,hey,in my opinion he is the best song writer of all time,but there is so much more to him,also writes films and books
Welcome to Nick's deep, dark Cave of melancholy beauty.
Never too late.😊
@Lord Dickens, he's not Primus

I love Nick Cave so much. I'm a singer-songwriter and he is a big inspiration to me. If you have some time you could check out some of my songs on my channel :)
so similar to Unkle-Burn my shadow
we libe in verse, for all things rhyme With something out of space and time . (Aldous H. ) thank Mr. Cave
Great song , sublime , thank you !!!!! Si no hubiese musica como esta este mundo seria un desastre
Another awesome song from Nick Cave .
ooooooooooooo Nick <3<3<3<3<3<3<3
He even manages to make a 'tash' acceptable, advisable, even................acceptable, anyway.
thank you nick for another wonderful song
Dig, Lazarus, Dig. One of the best from one of the best. Not a single fucking song skipped on this one...
Chrissakes, he is an incredible writer. I hope his pain becomes more manageable, though it sounds impossible even to me. The world needs you, Nick. Love and solidarity.
