leonard cohen - the guests (tour of 1979) lyrics
one by one the guests arrive
the guests are coming through
the open-hearted many
the broken-hearted few
oh, but no one knows
where the night is going
no one knows
why the wine is flowing
ah, love
i need you, i need you, i need you, i need you, oh
i need you now
those who dance begin to dance
those who weep begin
“welcome, welcome” cries a voice
“let all my guests come in”
oh, but no one knows
where the night is going
no one knows
why the wine is flowing
ah, love
i need you, i need you, i need you, i need you, oh
i need you now
and all go stumbling through that house
in utmost urgency
saying, “do reveal yourself
or why hast thou forsaken me?”
but no one knows
where the night is going
no one knows
why the wine is flowing
ah, love
i need you, i need you, i need you, i need you, oh
i need you now
all at once the torches flare
the inner door flies open
one by one they enter there
in every style of p-ssion
but no one knows
where the night is going
no one knows
why the wine is flowing
ah, love
i need you, i need you, i need you, i need you, oh
i need you now
those who dance begin to dance
those who weep begin
those who earnestly are lost
are lost and lost again
ah, but no one knows
where the night is going
no one knows
why the wine is flowing
ah, love
i need you, i need you, i need you, i need you, oh
i need you now
one by one the guests arrive
the guests are coming through
the broken-hearted many, the open-hearted few
and no one knows where the night is going
no one knows why the wine is flowing
ah, love
i need you, i need you, i need you, i need you, oh
i need you now
