Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds Lyrics for Song: The Carnival Is Over
 Lyrics for Album: Kicking Against the Pricks [1986]
 
 
 
 22968>Say goodbye, my own true lover
 
 As we sing a lover's song
 
 How it breaks my heart to leave you
 
 Now the carnival is gone
 
 High above, the dawn is waking
 
 And my tears are falling rain
 
 For the carnival is over
 
 We may never meet again
 
 Like a drum, my heart was beating
 
 And your kiss was sweet as wine
 
 But the joys of love are fleeting
 
 For Pierrot and Columbine
 
 Now the harbor light is calling
 
 This will be our last goodbye
 
 Though the carnival is over
 
 I will love you till I die
 
 Like a drum, my heart was beating
 
 And your kiss was sweet as wine
 
 But the joys of love are fleeting
 
 For Pierrot and Columbine
 
 Now the harbor light is calling
 
 This will be our last goodbye
 
 Though the carnival is over
 
 I will love you till I die
 
 Though the carnival is over
 
 I will love you till I die
 
 22968>
