Testo Light as the Breeze - Live at Dublin Show, 2012 - Leonard Cohen
Testo della canzone Light as the Breeze - Live at Dublin Show, 2012 (Leonard Cohen), tratta dall'album Can't Forget: A Souvenir of the Grand Tour
She stands before you naked
You can see it, you can taste it
And she comes to you light as the breeze
Now you can drink it or you can nurse it
It don't matter how you worship
As long as you're down on your knees
So I knelt there at the delta
At the alpha, the omega
At the cradle of the river and the seas
And like a blessing come from heaven
For something like a second
I was healed and my heart
Was at ease
Oh baby I've waited so long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh, something like this
(Oh, something like this)
You're weak and you're harmless
And you're sleeping in your harness
And the wind going wild in the trees
And it's not exactly prison
But you'll never be forgiven
For whatever you've done with the keys
Oh baby I've waited so long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh, something like this
(Oh, something like this)
It's dark and it's snowing
Oh my love, I must be going
The river has started to freeze
And I'm sick of pretending
I'm broken from bending
I've lived too long on my knees
Then she dances so graceful
And your heart's hard and hateful
And she's naked
But that's just a tease
And you turn in disgust
From your hatred and from your love
And she comes to you light as the breeze
Oh baby I've waited so long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh, something like this
(Oh, something like this)
There's blood on every bracelet
You can see it, you can taste it
And it's "Please baby, please baby, please"
She says, "Drink deeply, pilgrim
But don't forget there's still a woman
Beneath this, resplendent chemise"
So I knelt there at the delta
At the alpha, the omega
I knelt there like one who believes
And like a blessing come from heaven
For something like a second
I was cured and my heart was at ease
Oh baby I've waited so long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh, something like this
(Oh, something like this)
Oh baby I waited so long for your kiss
For something to happen
Oh, something like this
(Oh, something like this)
