Nick Cave & The Badseeds - The Big Hurt

*****************************************

Nick performed this for the Italian film Mojo, along with Gallon Drunk and it is available on a CD called Soho.





Now it begins, now that you're gone

Needles and pins, twilight till dawn

Watching that clock till you return

And lighting that torch and watching it burn





Now it begins, day after day

This is my life ticking away

Waiting to hear footsteps that say:

Love will appear and this time will stay





Each time you go

I try to pretend

It's over at last

This time the big hurt will end





Now it begins, now that you're gone

Needles and pins, twilight till dawn

So if you don't come back again

I wonder when, oh when will it end?

The big hurt (repeat)
