To Bring You My Love

Pj Harvey To Bring You My Love Lyrics
1.To Bring You My Love

I was born in the desert
I been down for years
Jesus, come closer
I think my time is near
And I've traveled over
Dry earth and floods
Hell and high water to bring you my love

Climbed over mountains
Traveled the sea
Cast down on heaven
Cast down on my knee
I've lain with the devil
Cursed God above
Forsaken heaven to bring you my love

To bring you my love
To bring you my love
To bring you my love

I know he's gonna be here
You know he's gonna be here
Yeah alright
Forsaken heaven
Cursed God above
Laid with the devil
Bring you my love

To bring you my love
To bring you my love
To bring you my love


2.Meet Ze Monsta

See it coming at my head
I'm not running
I'm not scared
Big black monsoon
Take me with you
I'm not jerking
I won't hide
Yeah, I'm ready
Meet ze monsta tonight
Big black monsoon
Take me with you
Ow! what a monsta
What a night
What a lover
What a fight
Big black monsoon
Take me with you
Yes it's coming out of this world
Yeah, I'm lucky
Lucky girl
Hell ain't half full
Take me with you
Big black monsoon
Take me with you


3.Working For The Man

In the night I look for love
Endless strength from the man above
God of piston, God of steel
God is here behind the wheel
I'm just working for the man
For love

Pretty things get in my car
Take them flying, it's not far
Take in handsome, take in me
Look good in my steel machine
I'm just working for the man

Don't you know yet who I am
Working harder for the man
Go around and doing good
Get my strength from the man above
I'm just working for the man
I'm just doing what I can
Go around I'm doing good
Go around I'm doing good
Go around I'm doing good
Go around I'm doing good
Go around I'm doing good
Go around I'm doing good


4.C'Mon Billy

C'mon Billy
Come to me
You know I'm waiting
I love you endlessly
C'mon Billy
You're the only one
Don't you think it's time now
You met your only son
I remember lover's play
The car was going
We lay in it for days
I remember the things you said
My little Billy, come to your lover's bed
Come home
It's my plea
Your home now is here with me
Come home to your son
Tomorrow might never come
C'mon Billy
You look good to me
How many nights now
Your child inside of...
Don't forget me
I had your son
Damn thing went crazy
But I swear you're the only one
C'mon Billy, come to me
C'mon alone, Billy, come to me
Come alone and come to me


5.Teclo

Long goes the night
Longer the day
Teclo your death
Will send me to my grave

I learned to beg
I learned to pray
Send me his love
Send him to me again
Let me ride
Let me ride
Let me ride on his grace for awhile
Let me ride
Let me ride
Just let me ride on his grace for awhile

Long goes the night
Longer the days
Teclo your death
Will send me to my grave
Let me ride
Let me ride
Just let me ride on his grace for awhile
Let me ride
Let me ride
Just let me ride on your grace for awhile
Just let me ride


6.Long Snake Moan

Um-hmmm
Dunk you under deep salt water
Bring me lover
All your power
I'll be no hell
Out of your spell
Over under die of pleasure
Hear my dreaming
You'll be drowning
Hell's no God above
All drunk on my love
You ought to hear my long snake moan
You ought to see me from my throne

Dunk you under deep salt water
In my dreaming
You'll be drowning
Raise me up Lord
Call me lazarus
Hey lord help me
Make me my fail
You ought to hear my long snake moan
You ought to see me from my throne
It's my voodoo working
It's my voodoo working


7.Down By The Water

I lost my heart under the bridge
That little girl
So much to me
And now I moan, and now I holler
She'll never know just what I found
That blue-eyed girl she said no more
And that blue-eyed girl became blue -eyed whore
Down by the water I took her hand
Just like my daughter
See her again

Oh, help me Jesus come through this storm
I had to lose her to do her harm
I heard her holler, I heard her moan
My lovely daughter
I took her home

Little fish, big fish, swimming in the water
Come back here, man, give me my daughter
Little fish, big fish, swimming in the water
Come back here, man, give me my daughter


8.I Think I'm A Mother

I think I'll come over
I'll give you my number
You lover, supporter
Then give me a mother
You come take me home and
Take me to your doctor
You think you'll come over?

I think I'm a mother

Roll over, roll over
And roll me a man-a
You lover, my lover
You just roll me over
You give me a mother
A man if I love her
I love her, I'll keep her
I better just keep her

Come on and support her
I said to the mother
She said you come over
She said she'd supporter her
I love her, I kept her
And then she just left and
Alone, I emplore ya

I think I'm a mother
(what is she saying after this?)


9.Send His Love To Me

Lover had to leave me
Cross the desert plain
Turned to me, his lady
Tells me 'Lover wait'
Calling Jesus, please
Send his love to me

Oh, wind and rain may haunt me
Look to the north and pray
Send me, please, his kisses
Send them home today
I'm begging, Jesus, please
Send his love to me

Left alone in desert
This house become a hell
This love become a tether
This room becomes a cell
Mommy, daddy, please
Send him back to me

How long must I suffer?
Dear God, I've served my time
This love becomes my torture
This love, my only crime
Lover please release me
My arms too weak to grip
My eyes to dry for weeping
My lips too dry to kiss
Calling ,Jesus, please
Send his love to me
I'm begging ,Jesus, please
Send his love to me


10.The Dancer

He came riding fast
Like a phoenix out of fire flames
He came dressed in black with a cross bearing my name
He came bathed in light and the splendor and glory
I can't believe what the Lord has finally sent me

He said dance for me, fanciulla gentil
He said laugh awhile, I can make your heart feel
He said fly with me, touch the face of the true God
He made me cry with joy at the depth of my love

Cause I've prayed days
I've prayed nights
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
I've looked long, I've looked far
To bring peace to my black and empty heart

My love will stay till the river bed run dry
And my love lasts long as the sunshine blue sky
I love him longer as each damn day goes
The man is gone and heaven only knows
Cause I've cried days
I've cried night
For the Lord just to send me home some sign
Is he near? Is he far?
Bring peace to my black and empty heart
So long day
So long night
Good lord, be near me tonight
Is he near? Is he far?
Bring peace to my naked empty heart
