Going Home - Leonard Cohen

[00:17.830]I love to speak with Leonard
[00:20.820]He's a sportsman and a shepherd
[00:23.900]He's a lazy bastard
[00:26.190]Living in a suit
[00:29.630]
[00:30.340]But he does say what I tell him
[00:33.990]Even though it isn't welcome
[00:36.459]He just doesn’t have the freedom
[00:39.499]To refuse
[00:42.029]
[00:42.699]He will speak these words of wisdom
[00:45.879]Like a sage, a man of vision
[00:48.419]Though he knows he's really nothing
[00:51.749]But the brief elaboration of a tube
[00:54.699]
[00:58.329]Going home Without my sorrow
[01:01.990]Going home
[01:02.349]Sometime tomorrow
[01:03.319]Going home To where it's better
[01:07.529]Than before
[01:09.099]
[01:10.309]Going home
[01:11.629]Without my burden
[01:13.859]Going home
[01:14.969]Behind the curtain
[01:16.799]Going home
[01:18.109]Without the costume
[01:19.889]That I wore
[01:21.459]
[01:35.539]He wants to write a love song
[01:38.589]An anthem of forgiving
[01:41.619]A manual for living with defeat
[01:46.019]
[01:47.889]A cry above the suffering
[01:51.029]A sacrifice recovering
[01:54.179]But that isn't what I need him to complete
[01:59.489]
[02:01.190]I want to make him certain
[02:03.379]That he doesn't have a burden
[02:05.769]That he doesn't need a vision
[02:09.060]
[02:09.620]That he only has permission
[02:12.400]To do my instant bidding
[02:16.560]Which is to SAY what I have told him
[02:20.040]To repeat
[02:20.720]
[02:21.980]Going home
[02:23.100]Without my sorrow
[02:24.930]Going home
[02:26.190]Sometime tomorrow
[02:28.060]Going home
[02:29.130]To where it's better
[02:31.610]Than before
[02:33.400]
[02:34.190]Going home
[02:35.560]Without my burden
[02:37.530]Going home
[02:38.600]Behind the curtain
[02:40.540]Going home
[02:41.650]Without the costume
[02:43.970]That I wore
[02:45.000]
[02:57.070]Going home
[02:58.400]Without my sorrow
[02:59.770]Going home
[03:00.850]Sometime tomorrow
[03:02.780]To where it's better
[03:04.850]Than before
[03:08.720]
[03:09.170]Going home
[03:11.100]Without my burden
[03:11.980]Going home
[03:13.450]Behind the curtain
[03:15.500]Going home
[03:16.710]Without the costume
[03:18.200]That I wore
[03:19.560]
[03:34.440]I love to speak with Leonard
[03:37.130]He's a sportsman and a shepherd
[03:40.460]He's a lazy bastard
[03:42.750]Living in a suit
[03:44.900]
