 Rate Gates To The Garden
Artist : Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds
Song : Gates To The Garden
Past the ivy-covered windows of
The
Angel
Down Athenaeum Lane to the
cathedral
Through the churchyard I
wandered
Sat for a spell there and I
pondered
My back to the gates of the
garden
My back to the gates of the
garden
My back to the gates of the
garden
Fugitive fathers, sickly infants,
decent mothers
Runaways and suicidal
lovers
Assorted boxes of ordinary bones
Of
aborted plans and sudden shattered hopes
In
unlucky rows, up to the gates of the garden
ln
unhappy rows, up to the gates of the garden
In
uniucky rows, up to the gates of the
garden
Won't you meet me at the
gates
Won't you meet me at the gates
Won't
you meet me at the gates
To the
garden
Beneath the creeping shadow of the
tower
The bell from St. Edmunds informs me of
the hour
I turn to find you waiting there for
me
In sunlight and I see the way that you
breathe
Allve and leaning on the gates of the
garden
Allve and leaning on the gates of the
garden
Allve and leaning on the gates of the
garden
Leave these ancient places to the
angels
Let the saints attend to their keeping
of the cathedrals
And leave the dead beneath
the ground so cold
For God is in this hand
that I hold
As we open up the gates of the
garden
Won't you meet me at the
gates
Won't you meet me at the gates
Won't
you meet me at the gates
To the garden
