[00:00.340]Came So Far for Beauty -Leonard Cohen
[00:15.578]I came so far for beauty left
[00:24.118]So much behind
[00:31.98]My patience and my family
[00:38.528]My masterpiece unsigned
[00:46.88]I thought I'd be rewarded
[00:53.388]For such a lonely choice
[01:00.598]And surely she would answer
[01:07.748]To such a very hopeless voice
[01:14.868]I practiced all my sainthood
[01:21.728]I gave to one and all
[01:27.448]But the rumours of my virtue
[01:34.458]They moved her not at all
[01:41.988]I changed my style to silver
[01:48.878]I changed my clothed to black
[01:55.478]And where I would surrender
[02:00.898]Now I would attack
[02:07.718]I stormed the old casino
[02:14.618]For the money
[02:16.938]And the flesh and I myself decided
[02:28.668]What was rotten
[02:32.88]And what was fresh
[02:36.928]And men to do my bidding
[02:43.218]And broken bones to teach
[02:49.208]The value of my pardon
[02:56.558]The shadow of my reach
[03:03.188]But no I could not touch her
[03:10.98]With such a heavy hand
[03:16.638]Her star beyond my order
[03:22.228]Her nakedness unmanned
[03:29.348]I came so far for beauty
[03:37.468]I left so much behind
[03:44.728]My patience and my family
[03:52.58]My masterpiece unsigned
