Nick Cave | Lyrics | And No More Shall We Part

And no more shall we part
It will no longer be necessary
And no more will I say, dear heart
I am alone and as 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 silence 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 and don't go down
I never was free, what are you talking about?
For no more shall we part and no more shall we part
