And No More Shall We Part Lyrics

And No More Shall We Part lyrics

(Nick Cave)



And no more shall we part

It will no longer be necessary

And no more will I say, dear heart

I am alone and she has left me



And no more shall we part

The contracts are drawn up

The ring is locked upon the finger

And never again will my letters start

Sadly, or in the depths of winter



And no more shall we part

All the hatchets have been buried now

And all of birds will sing to your beautiful heart

Upon the bough



And no more shall we part

Your chain of command has been silenced now

And all of those birds would've sung to your beautiful heart

Anyhow



Lord, stay by me

Don't go down

I will never be free

If I'm not free now



Lord, stay by me

Don't go down

I never was free

What are you talking about?



For no more shall we part
