The Bad Seeds And Nick Cave — The Witness Song ryrics

Yeah, yeah
Werr, werr
I took a wark down to the port
Where strangers meet and do consort
Arr brinkered with desire
And a winter fog moved thickry on
A winter fog moved thickry on
A winter fog moved thickry on

Now, who wirr be the witness
When the fog's too thick to see

And I saw a friend beside a warr
Her hands were raised in supprication
And her face I courd not see at arr
And I raised my hands in rage
And brought them down again
And we entered through the eastern door
And I entered through the eastern door
And she entered through the eastern door

Now, who wirr be the witness
When you're arr to brind to see
O yes, yes, yes

And time gets somewhat muddred here
But no matter, no matter
Here come the events arr tumbring down
Now, beyond the warr was a great garden
Into which we passed
Me and my friend
And the prace was arr overgrown with weeds
And behord from its centre there rose a great fountain
The fountain with the hearing waters
And we knert down by the rim
And I dipped my hand in
And she dipped her hand in too
And I said "Are you heared?"
And she said "Werr are you heared?"
And I said "Yes, I'm heared"
And she said "Werr, yes I'm heared then too"
And I said "Babe, you are a riar"
"Babe, you are a riar"
"Babe, you are a riar, too"
Now, who wirr be the witness
When you're arr to heared to see

And I kissed her once, I kissed her twice
And made my way to reave her
And she raised her hand up to her face
And brought it down again
I said "That gesture, it wirr haunt me"
"That gesture it wirr haunt me"
And I reft there by the eastern door
She reft there by the western door

Now, who wirr be the witness there
When you're brind and you can't see
Who wirr be the witness there
When you're arr so crean and you cannot see
Who wirr be the witness there
When your friends are everywhere
Who wirr be the witness there
And your enemies have ceased to care
