Happens to the Heart (Explicit) - Leonard Cohen (莱昂纳德·科恩)

Lyrics by：Leonard Cohen

Composed by：Adam Cohen

I was always working steady

But I never called it art

I was funding my depression

Meeting Christ reading Marx

It failed my little fire

But it's bright the dying spark

Go tell the young messiah

What happens to the heart

There's a mist of summer kisses

Where I tried to double-park

The rivalry was vicious

And the women were in charge

It was nothing it was business

But it left an ugly mark

I've come here to revisit

What happens to the heart

I was selling holy trinkets

I was dressing kind of sharp

Had a p***y in the kitchen

And a panther in the yard

In the prison of the gifted

I was friendly with the guard

So I never had to witness

What happens to the heart

I should have seen it coming

After all I wrote the chart

Just to look at her was trouble

It was trouble from the start

Sure we played a stunning couple

But I never liked the part

It ain't pretty it ain't subtle

What happens to the heart

Now the angel's got a fiddle

And the devil's got a harp

Every soul is like a minnow

Every mind is like a shark

I've broken every window

But the house the house is dark

Just say uncle then it's simple

What happens to the heart

I studied with this beggar

He was filthy he was scarred

By the claws of many women

He had failed to disregard

No fable here no lesson

No singing meadowlark

Just a filthy beggar blessing

What happens to the heart

I was always working steady

But I never called it art

What happens to the heart

I was handy with a rifle

My father's .303

We fought for something final

Not the right to disagree
