《Blessed Is The Memory(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:00] Blessed Is The Memory(Album Version) - Leonard Cohen

[00:00:06] I remember the promise

[00:00:08] That you made in the barn

[00:00:11] When the kittens were born

[00:00:14] And you could not keep warm

[00:00:16] So you moved away the mountain

[00:00:19] That the sun rose behind

[00:00:22] And you said yourself a prayer

[00:00:25] And laid down with the blind

[00:00:27] But you lost them in your freedom

[00:00:30] And you need him now you're wild

[00:00:33] Blessed is the memory

[00:00:36] Of everybody's child

[00:00:49] And the vow of compassion

[00:00:52] That you swore through your teeth

[00:00:55] When the war began to end

[00:00:57] And the photographs weep

[00:01:00] Well nobody blames you

[00:01:03] As the train pulls away

[00:01:06] With its cargo of snow

[00:01:08] For these German paper-weights

[00:01:11] But you lost them in your freedom

[00:01:14] And you need him now you're wild

[00:01:17] Blessed is the memory

[00:01:20] Of everybody's child

[00:01:33] Well its five in the morning

[00:01:36] There's no one home

[00:01:39] Except for your wife

[00:01:41] And your child on the phone

[00:01:44] Somebody's got to listen

[00:01:47] To a promise or two

[00:01:49] Oh this room is far too small

[00:01:52] For a pilgrim like you

[00:01:54] But you lost them in your freedom

[00:01:57] And you need him now you're wild

[00:02:00] Blessed is the memory

[00:02:03] Of everybody's child

[00:02:16] So now that you've decided

[00:02:18] To follow the sun

[00:02:20] Like a shadow of birds

[00:02:23] Or a King on the run

[00:02:26] Oh your chains are too dark

[00:02:29] For the seas you must swim

[00:02:31] You're smiling at the seaweed

[00:02:34] But your smile is too grim

[00:02:36] But you lost them in your freedom

[00:02:39] And you need him now you're wild

[00:02:42] Blessed is the memory

[00:02:45] Of everybody's child

[00:02:48] Blessed is the memory

[00:02:50] Of everybody's child

[00:02:53] Blessed is the memory

[00:02:55] Of everybody's child
