There she stand, this lovely creature
There she stand, there she stands
With her hair full of ribbons
And green gloves on her hands
So I asked this lovely creature
Yes, I asked. Yes I asked
Would she walk with me a while
Through this night so fast
She took my hand, this lovely creature
"Yes" she said, "Yes" she said
"Yes, I'll walk with you a while"
It was a joyful man she led
Over hills, this lovely creature
Over mountains, over ranges
By great pyramids and sphinxes
We met drifters and strangers
Oh the sands, my lovely creature
And the mad, moaning winds
At night the deserts writhed
With diabolical things
Through the night, through the night
The wind lashed and it whipped me
When I got home, my lovely creature
She was no longer with me
Somewhere she lies, this lovely creature
Beneath the slow drifting sands
With her hair full of ribbons
And green gloves on her hands

evryone thinks this is better tham Metallica's COVER because Nick Cave wrote this song to be played like this.
Metallica may have done it well 20 years ago but now they just tainted it with their blatant commercialism.
They cant match the darkness of Nick Caves personality.

you can hardly compare this with Metallica's version, theyre both done in completely different styles. Personally, I prefer Metallica's version, but just because its my style of music, but this version is really good too, it just took me a while to get used to the style.
