Cinnamon Horses
Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
I told my friends that life was sweet
I told my friends that life was very sweet
And the cinnamon horses
In the turpentine trees
I told my friends some things were good
That love would endure if it could
And the cinnamon horses
Stroll through the castle ruins
I said we can’t love someone
Without hurting someone
And a dozen white vampires
Under a strawberry moon
You said that
You said that
You said that oooh
You said that
You said that
Under a strawberry moon
Because love asks for nothing
But love costs everything
And the cinnamon horses
Dance beneath a strawberry moon
I said we should not hurt one another
Still we hurt one another
And a dozen white vampires
Sun themselves in the castle ruins
You said that
You said that
You said that oooh
I told my friends that life was sweet
I told my friends that life was very sweet
You said that
You said that
In the castle ruins
I told my friends that life was good
That love would endure if it could
You said that
You said that
You said that ooh
