Leonard Cohen - Heart with no companion

Tekst :

I greet you from the other side
Of sorrow and despair
With a love so vast and shattered
It will reach you everywhere
And I sing this for the captain
Whose ship has not been built
For the mother in confusion
Her cradle still unfilled

For the heart with no companion
For the soul without a king
For the prima ballerina
Who cannot dance to anything

Through the days of shame that are coming
Through the nights of wild distress
Tho your promise count for nothing
You must keep it nonetheless

You must keep it for the captain
Whose ship has not been built
For the mother in confusion
Her cradle still unfilled

For the heart with no companion ...

I greet you from the other side ...

    Origin of time/the face of old flesh
    Crumbles the earth/my feet and brain
    Collapsing into measures/of natures killing liberty
    Lights gone an empty house/should be filled of empty pain

    CHORUS
    In the light of a young moon
    The cold dark night becomes scary...

    When the stars go blue

    [Venke Knutson]
    Dancin where the stars go blue
    Dancin where the evening fell

    [Kurt Nilsen]
    Dancin in your wooden shoes

    [Both]
    In a wedding gown

    [Both]
    Dancin out on 7th street

    [Kurt Nilsen]
    Dancin through the underground

    [Venke Knutson]
    Dancin little marionette

    [Both]
    Are you happy now?

    [Both]
    Where do you go when you re lonely
    Where do you go...

    The faith

    The sea so deep and blind
    The sun, the wild regret
    The club, the wheel, the mind,
    O love, aren’t you tired yet?
    The club, the wheel, the mind
    O love, aren’t you tired yet?
    The blood, the soil, the faith
    These words you can’t forget
    Your vow, your holy place
    O love, aren’t you tired yet?
    The blood, the...

    Uh ah ooh
    ooh

    Back when I was 4 or 3
    clouds came rushing round into my sunshine
    clouds got a hold of me they brought me way, way down
    clouds so my baby believed but you were not around

    So now what you trying to be
    what you trying to, trying to do to me
    you got...

    Colors

    Summer, the leaves are green
    Winter the naked trees
    Springtime a new age is born
    In the fall there s an early dawn
    And the colors embrace the sun

    Tell me what, (what) is wrong (is wrong)
    We all wanna be free in...
