Take This Longing - Leonard Cohen[00:00:00]

Many men have loved the bells[00:00:06]

You fastened to the rein [00:00:11]

And everyone who wanted you[00:00:16]

They found what they will always want again [00:00:20]

Your beauty lost to you yourself[00:00:27]

Just as it was lost to them [00:00:31]

Oh take this longing from my tongue [00:00:35]

Whatever useless things these hands have done [00:00:40]

Let me see your beauty broken down[00:00:46]

Like you would do for one you love [00:00:52]

Your body like a searchlight[00:01:03]

My poverty revealed [00:01:08]

I would like to try your charity[00:01:13]

Until you cry "Now you must try my greed "[00:01:17]

And everything depends upon[00:01:25]

How near you sleep to me[00:01:28]

Just take this longing from my tongue[00:01:33]

All the lonely things my hands have done [00:01:38]

Let me see your beauty broken down[00:01:43]

Like you would do for one your love [00:01:49]

Hungry as an archway[00:02:01]

Through which the troops have passed [00:02:05]

I stand in ruins behind you [00:02:10]

With your winter clothes your broken sandal straps [00:02:13]

I love to see you naked over there[00:02:22]

Especially from the back [00:02:27]

Oh take this longing from my tongue [00:02:30]

All the useless things my hands have done [00:02:35]

Untie for me your hired blue gown [00:02:40]

Like you would do for one that you love [00:02:46]

You're faithful to the better man [00:02:57]

I'm afraid that he left [00:03:02]

So let me judge your love affair[00:03:07]

In this very room where I have sentenced[00:03:10]

Mine to death [00:03:15]

I'll even wear these old laurel leaves[00:03:18]

That he's shaken from his head [00:03:22]

Just take this longing from my tongue [00:03:27]

All the useless things my hands have done [00:03:32]

Let me see your beauty broken down [00:03:36]

Like you would do for one you love [00:03:42]

Like you would do for one you love[00:03:51]
