Master Song - Leonard Cohen[00:00:00]

Written by：Leonard Cohen[00:00:01]

I believe that you heard your master sing[00:00:13]

When I was sick in bed[00:00:19]

I suppose that he told you everything[00:00:24]

That I keep locked away in my head[00:00:29]

Your master took you travelling[00:00:34]

Well at least that's that's what you said[00:00:39]

And now do you come back to bring[00:00:44]

Your prisoner wine and bread[00:00:48]

You met him at some temple where[00:01:01]

They take your clothes at the door[00:01:07]

He was just a numberless man in a chair[00:01:11]

Who'd just come back from the war[00:01:16]

And you wrap up his tired face in your hair[00:01:21]

And he hands you the apple core[00:01:26]

Then he touches your lips now so suddenly bare[00:01:31]

Of all the kisses we put on some time before[00:01:36]

And he gave you a german shepherd to walk[00:01:49]

With a collar of leather and nails[00:01:54]

And he never once made you explain or talk[00:01:59]

About all of the little details[00:02:04]

Such as who had a word and who had a rock[00:02:09]

And who had you through the mails[00:02:14]

Now your love is a secret all over the block[00:02:19]

And it never stops not even when your master fails[00:02:24]

And he took you up in his aeroplane[00:02:37]

Which he flew without any hands[00:02:42]

And you cruised above the ribbons of rain[00:02:47]

That drove the crowd from the stands[00:02:52]

Then he killed the lights in a lonely lane[00:02:57]

And an ape with angel glands[00:03:02]

Erased the final wisps of pain[00:03:07]

With the music of rubber bands[00:03:12]

And now I hear your master sing[00:03:24]

You kneel for him to come[00:03:29]

His body is a golden string[00:03:34]

That your body is hanging from[00:03:39]

His body is a golden string[00:03:44]

My body has grown numb[00:03:48]

Oh now you hear your master sing[00:03:54]

Your shirt is all undone[00:03:58]

And will you kneel beside this bed[00:04:12]

That we polished so long ago[00:04:17]

Before your master chose instead[00:04:21]

To make my bed of snow[00:04:26]

Your eyes are wild and your knuckles are red[00:04:31]

And you're speaking far too low[00:04:35]

No I can't make out what your master said[00:04:40]

Before he made you go[00:04:45]

Then I think you're playing far too rough[00:04:58]

For a lady who's been to the moon[00:05:03]

I've lain by this window long enough[00:05:07]

To get used to an empty room[00:05:12]

And your love is some dust in an old man's cough[00:05:17]

Who is tapping his foot to a tune[00:05:21]

And your thighs are a ruin you want too much[00:05:26]

Let's say you came back some time too soon[00:05:31]

I loved your master perfectly[00:05:43]

I taught him all that he knew[00:05:48]

He was starving in some deep mystery[00:05:53]

Like a man who is sure what is true[00:05:57]

And I sent you to him with my guarantee[00:06:02]

I could teach him something new[00:06:06]

And I taught him how you would long for me[00:06:11]

No matter what he said no matter what you'd do[00:06:16]

I believe that you heard your master sing[00:06:28]

While I was sick in bed[00:06:33]

I'm sure that he told you everything[00:06:37]

I must keep locked away in my head[00:06:42]

Your master took you travelling[00:06:46]

Well at least that's what you said[00:06:51]

And now do you come back to bring[00:06:56]

Your prisoner wine and bread[00:07:00]
