作曲 : Leonard Cohen | |
作词 : Leonard Cohen | |
Many men have loved the bells you fastened to the rein | |
And everyone who wanted you | |
They found what they will always want again | |
Your beauty lost to you yourself just as it was lost to them | |
Oh take this longing from my tongue | |
Whatever useless things these hands have done | |
Let me see your beauty broken down | |
Like you would do for one you love | |
Your body like a searchlight my poverty revealed | |
I would like to try your charity | |
Until you cry, now you must try my greed | |
And everything depends upon how near you sleep to me | |
Just take this longing from my tongue | |
All the lonely things my hands have done | |
Let me see your beauty broken down | |
Like you would do for one your love | |
Hungry as an archway through which the troops have passed | |
I stand in ruins behind you | |
With your winter clothes, your broken sandal straps | |
I love to see you naked over there especially from the back | |
Oh take this longing from my tongue | |
All the useless things my hands have done | |
Untie for me your hired blue gown | |
Like you would do for one that you love | |
You're faithful to the better man, | |
I'm afraid that he left | |
So let me judge your love affair in this very room | |
Where I have sentenced mine to death | |
I'll even wear these old laurel leaves that he's shaken from his head | |
Just take this longing from my tongue | |
All the useless things my hands have done | |
Let me see your beauty broken down | |
Like you would do for one you love | |
Like you would do for one you love |
