	作词 : Leonard Cohen
	Say a prayer for the cowboy, his mare's run away
	And he'll walk 'til he finds her, his darling, his stray
	But the river's in flood and the roads are awash
	And the bridges break up in the panic of loss
	And there's nothing to follow, there's nowhere to go
	She's gone like the summer, gone like the snow
	And the crickets are breaking his heart with their song
	As the day caves in and the night is all wrong
	Did he dream, was it she who went galloping past?
	And bent down the fern, broke open the grass
	And printed the mud with the iron and the gold
	That he nailed to her feet when he was the lord
	And although she goes grazing a minute away
	He tracks her all night, he tracks her all day
	Oh, blind to her presence, except to compare
	His injury here with her punishment there
	Then at home on a branch, in the highest tree
	A songbird sings out, so suddenly
	Ah, the sun is warm and the soft winds ride
	On the willow trees by the river side
	Oh, the world is sweet, the world is wide
	And she's there where the light and the darkness divide
	And the steam's coming off her, she's huge and she's shy
	And she steps on the moon when she paws at the sky
	And she comes to his hand but she's not really tame
	She longs to be lost, he longs for the same
	And she'll bolt and she'll plunge through the first open pass
	To roll and to feed in the sweet mountain grass
	Or she'll make a break for the high plateau
	Where there's nothing above and there's nothing below
	And it's time for the burden, it's time for the whip
	Will she walk through the flame?
	Can he shoot from the hip?
	So he binds himself to the galloping mare
	And she binds herself to the rider there
	And there is no space but there's left and right
	And there is no time but there's day and night
	And he leans on her neck and he whispers low"Whither thou goest,I will go"
	And they turn as one and they head for the plain
	No need for the whip, ah, no need for the rein
	Now the clasp of this union, who fastens it tight?
	Who snaps it asunder the very next night?
	Some say the rider, some say the mare
	Or that love's like the smoke, beyond all repair
	But my darling says, "Leonard, just let it go byThat old silhouette on the great Western sky”So I pick out a tune and they move right alongAnd they're gone like the smokeAnd they're gone like this song
