Leonard Cohen - In my secret life

Tekst :

I saw you this morning.
You were moving so fast.
Can’t seem to loosen my grip
On the past.
And I miss you so much.
There’s no one in sight.
And we’re still making love
In My Secret Life.

I smile when I’m angry.
I cheat and I lie.
I do what I have to do
To get by.
But I know what is wrong,
And I know what is right.
And I’d die for the truth
In My Secret Life.

Hold on, hold on, my brother.
My sister, hold on tight.
I finally got my orders.
I’ll be marching through the morning,
Marching through the night,
Moving cross the borders
Of My Secret Life.

Looked through the paper.
Makes you want to cry.
Nobody cares if the people
Live or die.
And the dealer wants you thinking
That it’s either black or white.
Thank G-d it’s not that simple
In My Secret Life.

I bite my lip.
I buy what I’m told:
From the latest hit,
To the wisdom of old.
But I’m always alone.
And my heart is like ice.
And it’s crowded and cold
In My Secret Life.

    Johnny go

    Et les pièces sont vides à présent et je suis libre de mon temps
    Faire un café fumer un joint me semble intelligent
    La chose à faire en ce cas-là n est pas prescrite par la loi
    Ni par les Tables de la Foi
    Tu n es pas ici des murs sont disparus...

    Billy was a young man gone astray
    Bottle at his lips all night and day
    Mama said they re gonna send you up the river someday

    I cannot follow you, my love,
    you cannot follow me.
    I am the distance you put between
    all of the moments that we will be.
    You know who I am,
    you ve stared at the sun,
    well I am the one who loves
    changing from nothing to one.
