歌曲 | Lady Midnight |
歌手 | Leonard Cohen |
专辑 | Live at the Isle of Wight 1970 |
作曲 : Leonard Cohen | |
作词 : Leonard Cohen | |
I came by myself to a very crowded place; | |
I was looking for someone who had lines in her face. | |
I found her there but she was past all | |
concern; | |
I asked her to hold me, I said, "Lady, unfold me," | |
but she scorned me and she told me | |
I was dead and I could never return. | |
Well, I argued all night like so many have before, | |
saying, "Whatever you give me, I seem to need so much more." | |
Then she pointed at me where I kneeled on her floor, | |
she said, "Don't try to use me or slyly refuse me, | |
just win me or lose me, | |
it is this that the darkness is for." | |
I cried, "Oh, Lady Midnight, I fear that you grow old, | |
the stars eat your body and the wind makes you cold." | |
"If we cry now," she said, "it will just be ignored." | |
So I walked through the morning, sweet early morning, | |
I could hear my lady calling, | |
"You've won me, you've won me, my lord, | |
you've won me, you've won me, my lord, | |
yes, you've won me, you've won me, my lord, | |
ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord, | |
ah, you've won me, you've won me, my lord." |
