Triple Play 28~~~~ To Be By Your Side~~~Lovely!

My Triple Play this week featuring one of my favourite songs by the most talented Nick Cave..I am Swooning here lol.

Across the oceans Across the seas, Over forests of blackened trees.
Through valleys so still we dare not breathe, To be by your side.

Over the shifting desert plains, Across mountains all in flames.
Through howling winds and driving rains, To be by your side.

Every mile and every year for every one a little tear.
I cannot explain this, Dear, I will not even try.

Into the night as the stars collide,
Across the borders that divide forests of stone standing petrified,
To be by your side.

Every mile and every year, For every one a single tear.
I cannot explain this, Dear, I will not even try.

For I know one thing, Love comes on a wing.
For tonight I will be by your side. But tomorrow I will fly.

From the deepest ocean To the highest peak,
Through the frontiers of your sleep.
Into the valley where we dare not speak, To be by your side.

Across the endless wilderness where all the beasts bow down their heads.
Darling I will never rest till I am by your side.

Every mile and every year, Time and Distance disappear I cannot explain this.
Dear No, I will not even try.

For I know one thing, Love comes on a wing and tonight I will be by your side.
But tomorrow I will fly away, Love rises with the day and tonight I may be by your side.
But tomorrow I will fly, Tomorrow I will fly, Tomorrow I will fly.

Pelicans......Sydney 2000


 

What is that bird who fishes free


 Is big and proud with dignity


 Whether soaring through a Sapphire sky


 Or nesting on a pole so high


 An amazing site as a fish I throw


 Swallowed whole! where did it go!


 And as it waddles back for more


 Its mates are on the distant shore.


 The boats are in from a fruitful trip


 And the big white birds will want to dip


 Into the water next to the dock


 Their next meal is there so in they flock


Elegant, graceful as they glide


 Wings out stretched from their side


 Oh Pelican don't ever leave our shore


 Pelican Conspicillatus Australian to the core.
