Going Home歌词

[00:01.83]Going Home
[00:06.19]
[00:08.24]Leonard Cohen
[00:11.80]
[00:16.18]I love to speak with Leonard
[00:19.03]He's a sportsman and a shepherd
[00:21.35]He's a lazy bastard
[00:24.56]Living in a suit
[00:26.53]
[00:28.58]But he does say what I tell him
[00:31.09]Even though it isn't welcome
[00:34.59]He just doesn't have the freedom
[00:37.82]To refuse
[00:39.52]
[00:41.01]He will speak these words of wisdom
[00:43.97]Like a sage, a man of vision
[00:46.71]Though he knows he's really nothing
[00:50.13]But the brief elaboration of a tube
[00:54.80]
[00:56.51]Going home
[00:57.73]Without my sorrow
[00:59.69]Going home
[01:00.71]Sometime tomorrow
[01:02.72]Going home
[01:03.80]To where it's better
[01:05.80]Than before
[01:06.91]
[01:08.69]Going home
[01:10.11]Without my burden
[01:11.99]Going home
[01:13.27]Behind the curtain
[01:15.23]Going home
[01:16.34]Without the costume
[01:18.33]That I wore
[01:19.55]
[01:34.08]He wants to write a love song
[01:37.22]An anthem of forgiving
[01:40.31]A manual for living with defeat
[01:44.14]
[01:46.63]A cry above the suffering
[01:49.78]A sacrifice recovering
[01:52.42]But that isn't what I need him to complete
[01:57.30]
[01:59.02]I want to make him certain
[02:02.03]That he doesn't have a burden
[02:04.57]That he doesn't need a vision
[02:07.22]
[02:08.42]That he only has permission
[02:11.27]To do my instant bidding
[02:14.10]That is to SAY what I have told him
[02:17.71]To repeat
[02:18.55]
[02:20.77]Going home
[02:21.81]Without my sorrow
[02:23.86]Going home
[02:24.76]Sometime tomorrow
[02:26.85]Going home
[02:28.11]To where it's better
[02:29.86]Than before
[02:30.94]
[02:33.14]Going home
[02:34.38]Without my burden
[02:36.29]Going home
[02:37.42]Behind the curtain
[02:39.34]Going home
[02:40.41]Without the costume
[02:42.11]That I wore
[02:43.47]
[03:32.64]I love to speak with Leonard
[03:35.36]He's a sportsman and a shepherd
[03:38.20]He's a lazy bastard
[03:40.75]Living in a suit
[03:43.74]
