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

I remember the promise[00:00:06]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Blessed is the memory[00:00:33]

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

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

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

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

And the photographs weep[00:00:57]

Well nobody blames you[00:01:00]

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

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

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

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

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

Blessed is the memory[00:01:17]

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

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

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

Except for your wife[00:01:39]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Blessed is the memory[00:02:00]

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

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

To follow the sun[00:02:18]

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Blessed is the memory[00:02:42]

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

Blessed is the memory[00:02:48]

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

Blessed is the memory[00:02:53]

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