I'll Fall With Your Knife Lyrics
To the world
You were so dry
And with the token bird I made
Send it to fly right to your side
With the broken wing you sailed
Oh like winter in July
A barren river wide
I'll pray for the flood
To wash on you
It's here I'll be with you
To this land I'll be with you
'Til the sun bursts from your side
With my hands I reach to you
When you think your chance is passing by
When you blow your moon away
I'll bleed like the reed
Fall with your knife
It's here I'll be with you
My favorite Peter Murphy song!! His voice is amazing and he has gorgeous eyes. This song is about forever staying by the side of someone he loves no matter what.
I listen to Peter Murphy's best albums quite a lot. Subway, Cuts You Up, Our Secret Garden, You're So Close, etc, etc. The music and lyrics flow together so well in the recordings that it is a bit disappointing to read the lyrics by themselves.
This is such an awesome song! Peter Murphy is such a talented singer. This song is really beautiful. It's this admission of undying love. He'll never leave his love, he'll "bleed like the reed, fall with your knife..."
Peter Murphy is a fricken god... just listen to the mans voice... this is probably his greatest song off of Cascade which is probably my favorite of his solo albums... (maybe of his whole career)
This song is unbelievably romantic.
Hopeful selflessness to gods fallen
