leonard cohen - so long, marianne (tour of 1979) lyrics

Loading...

won’t you come over to the window, my little darling
i’d like to try to read your palm
you know i used to think i was some kind of gypsy boy
before i let you take me home

so long, marianne
it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry
and cry and laugh
about it all again

well, you know i’d love to live with you
but you make me forget so very much
i forget to pray for the angels
and then the angels forget to pray for us

so long, marianne
it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry
and cry and laugh
about it all again

oh, we met – when was it? – we were almost young
it was down by the green lilac park
you held on to me like i was a crucifix
as we went kneeling through the dark

so long, marianne
it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry
and cry and laugh
about it all again

[violin solo]

so long, marianne
it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry
and cry and laugh
about it all again

for now i need your hidden love
i’m cold as a new razor blade
you left when i told you i was curious
did i ever say that i was brave?

so long, marianne
it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry
and cry and laugh
about it all again

oh, you are really such a perfect one
i see you’ve gone and changed your names again
and just when i climbed this whole mountainside
to wash my eyelids in that rain

so long, marianne
it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry
and cry and laugh
about it all again

so long, marianne
it’s time that we began
to laugh and cry
and cry and laugh
about it all again
