Boogie Street (Live in London)

Boogie Street - Leonard Cohen (萊昂納德·科恩)

O Crown of Light O Darkened One

I never thought we'd meet

You kiss my lips and then it's done

I'm back on Boogie Street

A sip of wine a cigarette and then it's time to go

I tidied up the kitchenette I tuned the old banjo

I'm wanted at the traffic jam they're saving me a seat

I'm what I am and what I am is back on Boogie Street

And O my love I still recall the pleasures that we knew

The rivers and the waterfall where in I bathed with you

Bewildered by your beauty there I'd kneel to dry your feet

By such instructions you prepare a man for Boogie Street

O Crown of Light O Darkened One

Darkened One

I never thought we'd meet

You kiss my lips and then it's done

Then it's done

And I'm back back on Boogie Street

So come my friends be not afraid we are so lightly here

It is in love that we are made in love we disappear

Though all the maps of blood and flesh are posted on the door

There's no one who has told us yet what Boogie Street is for

O Crown of Light O Darkened One

Darkened One

I never thought we'd meet

You kiss my lips and then it's done

Then it's done

And I'm back back on Boogie Street

A sip of wine a cigarette and then it's time to go

I tidied up the kitchenette I tuned the old banjo

I'm wanted at the traffic jam they're saving me a seat

I'm what I am and what I am is back on Boogie Street
