I Have Wandered All My Unending Days Songtext
von Nick Cave

(There is a mansion in the sky)

I have wandered all my unending days
Shuttered your shining aspect in the stars
Hidden alleys and tramp broken highways
With little in my pockets but my prayers

(There is a mansion in the sky)


And I have searched all my unending days
Slept in fields beneath a canopy of stars
Your face emerging in the early morning haze
Held in its position by my prayers

And though I have nothing but this prayer
That all will be revealed by and by
I pray someday, my Lord, you will appear
And lead me to your mansion in the sky

There is a mansion in the sky
And we will go there by and by
