Lyrics

[00:00.00] 作曲 : Leonard Cohen
[00:00.782] 作词 : Leonard Cohen
[00:02.346] It's true that all the men you knew were dealers
[00:07.91] who said they were through with dealing
[00:10.81] Every time you gave them shelter
[00:15.153] I know that kind of man
[00:16.786] It's hard to hold the hand of anyone
[00:18.746] who is reaching for the sky just to surrender.
[00:25.85] who is reaching for the sky just to surrender.
[00:26.145] And then sweeping up the jokers that he left behind
[00:34.960] you find he did not leave you very much
[00:38.584] not even laughter
[00:41.786] Like any dealer he was watching for the card
[00:45.421] that is so high and wild
[00:47.288] he'll never need to deal another
[00:51.851] He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
[00:54.773] He was just some Joseph looking for a manger.
[01:03.34] And then leaning on your window sill
[01:06.30] he'll say one day you caused his will
[01:08.753] to weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
[01:13.482] And then taking from his wallet
[01:15.446] an old schedule of trains,he'll say
[01:19.280] I told you when I came I was a stranger.
[01:21.325] But now another stranger seems to want you to ignore his dreams
[01:29.56] as though they were the burden of some other
[01:35.115] O you've seen that man before
[01:36.970] his golden arm dispatching cards
[01:39.470] but now it's rusted from the elbow to the finger
[01:45.540] And he wants to trade the game he plays for shelter
[01:50.310] Yes he wants to trade the game he knows for shelter.
[01:56.395] You hate to watch another tired man
[01:59.604] lay down his hand
[02:00.914] like he was giving up the holy game of poker
[02:07.229] And while he talks his dreams to sleep
[02:09.269] you notice there's a highway
[02:11.450] that is curling up like smoke above his shoulder
[02:14.545] It's curling up like smoke above his shoulder.
[02:23.395] You tell him to come in sit down
[02:26.902] but something makes you turn around
[02:28.964] The door is open you can't close you shelter
[02:31.688] You try the handle of the road
[02:35.303] It opens do not be afraid
[02:38.37] It's you my love,you who are the stranger
[02:40.834] It is you my love,you who are the stranger.
[02:49.518] Well,I've been waiting,I was sure
[02:51.156] we'd meet between the trains we're waiting for
[02:54.683] I think it's time to board another
[02:59.893] Please understand,I never had a secret chart
[03:02.963] to get me to the heart of this
[03:06.662] or any other matter
[03:07.902] Well he talks like this
[03:17.853] you don't know what he's after
[03:18.43] When he speaks like this,
[03:19.628] you don't know what he's after.
[03:21.254] Let's meet tomorrow if you chose
[03:22.442] upon the shore,beneath the bridge
[03:24.523] that they are building on some endless river
[03:32.548] Then he leaves the platform
[03:33.827] for the sleeping car that's warm
[03:36.697] You realize,he's only advertising one more shelter
[03:39.867] And it comes to you,he never was a stranger
[03:47.285] And you say ok the bridge or someplace later.
[03:50.409] And then sweeping up the jokers
[03:55.367] that he left behind
[03:58.548] you find he did not leave you very much
[04:00.658] not even laughter
[04:01.582] Like any dealer he was watching for the card
[04:07.472] that is so high and wild
[04:11.432] he'll never need to deal another
[04:14.32] He was just some Joseph looking for a manger
[04:16.397] He was just some Joseph looking for a manger.
[04:25.401] And leaning on your window sill
[04:28.221] he'll say one day you caused his will
[04:31.56] to weaken with your love and warmth and shelter
[04:33.285] And then taking from his wallet
[04:38.91] an old schedule of trains
[04:40.328] he'll say I told you when I came I was a stranger
[04:43.881] I told you when I came I was a stranger.
[04:47.788] I told you when I came I was a stranger.

[04:54.161] we are the stranger........
