Death Of A Ladies' Man - Leonard Cohen

Death Of A Ladies' Man LRC歌词

[00:00.000] 作词 : Leonard Cohen

[00:01.000] 作曲 : Phil Spector

[00:38.42]Ah the man she wanted all her life was hanging by a thread

[00:46.39]"I never even knew how much I wanted you," she said

[00:54.33]His muscles, they were numbered, and his style was obsolete

[01:02.25]"Oh baby, I have come too late." “

[01:07.09]She knelt beside his feet

[01:16.83]"I'll never see a face like yours in years of men to come “

[01:24.63]I'll never see such arms again in wrestling or love."

[01:32.82]And all his virtues burning in the smokey holocaust

[01:40.68]She took unto herself most everything her lover lost

[02:00.81]Now the master of this landscape, he was standing at the view

[02:08.47]With a sparrow of st. francis that he was preaching to

[02:16.96]She beckoned to the sentry of his high religious mood

[02:24.37]She said, "I'll make a place between my legs, I'll teach you solitude."

[02:48.01]He offered her an orgy in a many mirrored room

[02:53.59]He promised her protection for the issue of her womb

[03:01.76]She moved her body hard against a sharpened metal spoon

[03:11.61]She stopped the bloody rituals of passage to the moon

[04:05.47]She took his much admired oriental frame of mind

[04:12.44]And the heart-of-darkness alibi his money hides behind

[04:21.24]She took his blonde madonna and his monastery wine

[04:29.20]"This mental space is occupied and everything is mine. “

[04:45.29]He tried to make a final stand beside the railway track

[04:52.79]She said, "The art of longing's over and it's never coming back."

[05:00.87]She took his tavern parliament, his cap, his cocky dance

[05:05.60]

[05:08.97]She mocked his female fashions and his working-class moustache

[05:29.18]The last time that I saw him he was trying hard to get

[05:37.02]A woman's education, but he's not a woman yet

[05:44.74]And the last time that I saw her she was living with some boy

[05:52.86]Who gives her soul an empty room and gives her body joy

[06:11.72]So the great affair is over, but whoever would have guessed

[06:22.86]It would leave us all so vacant and so deeply unimpressed

[06:33.28]It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star

[06:43.18]I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far

[07:27.18]It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star

[07:37.02]I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far

[08:34.36]It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star

[08:44.39]I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far
