《Last Year’s Man》歌词

[00:00:00] Last Year's Man - Leonard Cohen

[00:00:01] The rain falls down on last year's man

[00:00:08] That's a Jew's harp on the table

[00:00:12] That's a crayon in his hand

[00:00:18] And the corners of the blueprint

[00:00:20] Are ruined since they rolled

[00:00:25] Far past the stems of thumbtacks

[00:00:28] That still throw shadows on the wood

[00:00:34] And the skylight is like skin

[00:00:39] For a drum I'll never mend

[00:00:43] And all the rain falls down amen

[00:00:51] On the works of last year's man

[00:01:03] I met a lady she was playing

[00:01:08] With her soldiers in the dark

[00:01:13] Oh one by one she had to tell them

[00:01:19] That her name was Joan of Arc

[00:01:27] I was in that army yes

[00:01:31] I stayed a little while

[00:01:38] I want to thank you

[00:01:41] Joan of Arc for treating me so well

[00:01:49] And though I wear a uniform

[00:01:53] I was not born to fight

[00:01:58] All these wounded boys

[00:02:02] You lie beside goodnight

[00:02:06] My friends goodnight

[00:02:14] I came upon a wedding

[00:02:18] That old families had contrived

[00:02:25] Bethlehem the bridegroom

[00:02:30] Babylon the bride

[00:02:35] Great Babylon was naked

[00:02:38] Oh she stood there trembling for me

[00:02:46] And Bethlehem inflamed us

[00:02:49] Both like the shy one at some orgy

[00:02:57] And when we fell together

[00:03:01] All our flesh was like a veil

[00:03:06] That I had to draw aside to see

[00:03:12] The serpent eat it's tail

[00:03:21] Some women wait for Jesus

[00:03:25] And some women wait for Cain

[00:03:30] So I hang upon my altar

[00:03:35] And I hoist my Axe again

[00:03:40] And I take the one who finds me

[00:03:45] Back to where it all began

[00:03:52] When Jesus was the honeymoon

[00:03:57] And Cain was just the man

[00:04:01] And we read from pleasant

[00:04:05] Bibles that are bound in blood and skin

[00:04:12] That the wilderness is gathering

[00:04:17] All it's children back again

[00:04:27] The rain falls down on last year's man

[00:04:37] An hour has gone by

[00:04:41] And he has not moved his hand

[00:04:47] But everything will happen

[00:04:51] If he only gives the word

[00:04:58] The lovers will rise up

[00:05:01] And the mountains touch the ground

[00:05:07] But the skylight is like skin

[00:05:12] For a drum I'll never mend

[00:05:17] And all the rain falls down amen

[00:05:25] On the works of last year's man
