    Lyrics:
    I don’t believe in an interventionist God
    But I know, darling, that you do
    But if I did I would kneel down and ask Him
    Not to intervene when it came to you
    Not to touch a hair on your head
    To leave you as you are
    And if He felt He had to direct you
    Then direct you into my arms
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms
    And I don’t believe in the existence of angels
    But looking at you I wonder if that’s true
    But if I did I would summon them together
    And ask them to watch over you
    To each burn a candle for you
    To make bright and clear your path
    And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
    And guide you into my arms
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms
    But I believe in Love
    And I know that you do too
    And I believe in some kind of path
    That we can walk down, me and you
    So keep your candles burning
    And make her journey bright and pure
    That she will keep returning
    Always and evermore
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms

      @@cj3126 I certainly can't disagree with you about our heroes being shitty people more often than not, but I don't jive with your reasoning here.
      I've grown up in a family rife with mental illness and addiction. Every branch of our tree has carried on the legacy. There were all kinds of different parenting styles and levels of dedication to therapy or what have you but, at the end of the day, the majority of us ended up with some degree of psychological issues. I don't know Nick Cave's family history, but I do know he's an addict - a lot of the time that's all that it takes for it to bleed into the children.
      I'm sure there's a lot that he could've done better, but it seems unnecessarily cruel to imply that his children died because he was a bad parent. There's so much more to it than that

      It's a personal preference.
      Like I'm not a fan of Justin Beiber or a lot of current charting music.
      It's a personal choice that sings to me.
      The fact he wrote it in a quaint old English church, in the depths of winter during a snow storm has no bearing to me. My own interpretation and feelings can transcend Mr Caves own meaning.

      The first half is a metaphorical masterpiece. The second half conjures pure loss and makes me realize that no matter what we do the end is the same. It's a reminder (to me) that we should be as good to each other as we can.

    My ex fiancé dedicated this song to me. It makes me long for him in ways I can’t explain. Although we did love each other very deeply, I had my issues with mental health and he had his issues with drugs and alcohol. He could also be very cruel to me, that it crushed my self esteem. So I fled, and it was the hardest decision of my life. I know that we will never ever be together again, and it’s for the best. Its been 4 years, and sometimes I come here, and listen to this, and wish I was back in that brief moment in time when we were in each other’s arms.

    Nick Cave on the death in 2015 of his teenage son Arthur:
    "Arthur’s death literally changed everything for me. Absolutely everything. It made me a religious person. I am not talking about being a traditional Christian. I am not even talking about a belief in God, necessarily. It made me a religious person in the sense that I felt, on a profound level, a deep inclusion in the human predicament, and an understanding of our vulnerability and the sense that, as individuals, we are, each of us, imperilled. Each life is precarious, and some of us understand it and some don’t. I became a person after my son died.
    The world seemed to vibrate with a peculiar, spiritual energy. I was genuinely surprised by how susceptible I became to a kind of magical thinking. How readily I dispensed with that wholly rational part of my mind and how comforting it was to do so. Now, that may well be a strategy for survival and, as such, a part of the ordinary mechanics of grief, but it is something that persists to this day. Perhaps it is a kind of delusion, I don’t know, but if it is, it is a necessary and benevolent one.
    Things happen in your life, terrible things, great obliterating events, where the need for spiritual consolation can be immense, and your sense of what is rational is less coherent and can suddenly find itself on very shaky ground. I think of late I’ve grown increasingly impatient with my own skepticism; it feels obtuse and counter-productive, something that’s simply standing in the way of a better-lived life. I love this world - with all its joys and its vast goodness, its civility and complete and utter lack of it, its brilliance and its absurdity. I love it all, and the people in it, all of them. I feel nothing but deep gratitude to be a part of this whole cosmic mess.
    I don’t know how to exactly say this, and please don’t misunderstand it, but since Arthur died I have been able to step beyond the full force of the grief and experience a kind of joy that is entirely new to me. It was as if grief enlarged my heart in some way. I have experienced periods of happiness more than I have ever felt before, even though it was the most devastating thing ever to happen to me.
    This is Arthur’s gift to me, one of the many. It is his munificence that’s made me a different person. I say all this with huge caution and a million caveats, but I also say it because there are those who think there is no way back from the catastrophic event. That they will never laugh again. But there is, and they will."

    I did not know much about Nick Cave, but when I heard he sang this song personally at the funeral of Michael Hutchence of INXS , I was curious to hear it. One of the crazy things about that funeral is that it was televised live on Australian television. Like the true gentleman that Nick Cave must be he asked that the cameras be turned off when he sang this song his family and friends. That's a class act all the way. Bravo, and what a beautiful song it is indeed

    I don't believe in an interventionist God
    But I know, darling, that you do
    But if I did, I would kneel down and ask Him
    Not to intervene when it came to you
    Oh, not to touch a hair on your head
    Leave you as you are
    If he felt he had to direct you
    Then direct you into my arms
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms
    And I don't believe in the existence of angels
    But looking at you I wonder if that's true
    But if I did I would summon them together
    And ask them to watch over you
    Both to each burn a candle for you
    To make bright and clear your path
    And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
    And guide you into my arms
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms
    But I believe in Love
    And I know that you do, too
    And I believe in some kind of path
    That we can walk down, me and you
    So keep your candles burning
    Make her journey bright and pure
    That she'll keep returning
    Always and evermore
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms, oh Lord
    Into my arms

    Love changed me once. I thought at the time that it bruised me only much later on to realise that it was me hurting myself. It took me years to understand what loving truly means. Love does not require happy ending. It just needs to be. Love is a value on it's own. It pained me for years until I learned to appreciate love itself without attaching it to the need to physically be close to the loved one. That's an eternal love. I wish everyone who misses someone would live to recognise the beauty of accepting it this way. Love does not disappear, does not leave or stop existing. It's always there, once we let ourselves be vulnerable enough to accept it, blessing us for an eternity.

      Beautifully put, if i could add to this it would be that a couple of my friends have used beautiful and poigniant songs or soundtracks that were perfect for the service. However
      the same pieces, that were so special and already had many memories attached to them
      were taken over by this one final memory. with one to the point where they couldn`t bare to listen to it any longer. Such was the power of both song and memory. I guess the point of this response is to try and think of music used before the finality of such a situation. This is ok in an ideal world however perhaps we could discuss this with family
      and friends before. A very delicate subject. Clifford

      I maintained the relationship, through small gifts and shows of affection and offers of support, and, over time, realized that I had come to truly love that person.
      Due to our many varied differences or affections will never blossom into the fairy tale ending. It doesn't have to. I'm so happy for the love that I've found and the nourishment that it has provided my soul. I love you, Honey Bunch.

    Not to intervene when it came to you
    Not to touch a hair on your head
    To leave you as you are
    And if He felt He had to direct you
    Then direct you into my arms
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms
    And I don't believe in the existence of angels
    But looking at you I wonder if that's true
    But if I did I would summon them together
    And ask them to watch over you
    To each burn a candle for you
    To make bright and clear your path
    And to walk, like Christ, in grace and love
    And guide you into my arms

    Into my arms
    But I believe in Love
    And I know that you do too
    And I believe in some kind of path
    That we can walk down, me and you
    So keep your candles burning
    And make her journey bright and pure
    That she will keep returning
    Always and evermore
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms, O Lord
    Into my arms

    I lost my dog Toodles. I know you may think it is just a dog. However he was my world, my best bud, my emotional support dog, and my rescue baby. I did CPR on him at 2 a.m. our regular vet was closed. We drove an hour away to emergency clinic doing CPR. He came back 3 times....I tried to save him. Vet said maybe he may make it but critical. He had a heart murmur . What we did not know, until the next day, is that a palpitation caused a rupture and part of his heart had collapsed. He was put in an oxygen tank. He died the next morning. I fell to the floor. I am beyond devastated. Traumatized. I loved him so very much. I hope to see him at the Rainbow Bridge one day. Until then I can not. I just can't. I am beyond sad. Emptiness in my heart aches. I miss you Toodles so much. Forever.

We went home comforted by the "expert advice" of the vet only to find my frenchie lifeless in our kitchen after couple of hours. It's totally devastating.

    When my ex and I split up she took my daughter away as punishment. I spent months wishing I could speak to her, or hear her voice. I was around my daughter every single day, she was my entire world up until that point. When I would get home from work I would hear her scream out ‘DADDY DADDY DADDY!’ and I went months without hearing a sound she made except the videos on my phone. It was hard. Nothing came close to touching how I felt, and every moment that I spent worrying about her. This song made me feel like there is love out there that compares, as well as the pain that can come with it. I finally made it to a courthouse and got my daughter back. This is her song for the rest of my life. Thank you for getting me through this.
