lirik lagu desperate man (song for leonard cohen) – indio saravanja
you traded words for groceries
and fingers in your hair
the women all got roses
in your theatre of despair
and how i longed to be like you
and know such discipline
to sit down with the teachers
who helped you stay so thin
i loved your old world elegance
your clothes your chinese mind
i loved the thousand women
that you had to leave behind
the way you courted sadness
with bouquets on bended knees
and let her lead you in
and out of love so easily
playing a game of catch me if you can
and may the devil or the angel win the hand
they can find me but i’ll never take the stand
a desperate man
desperate man
i’ve heard some call you angel
yes the ones who seem to care
they say you’re over here
and then they say you’re over there
like a ghost that walks the city streets
invisible and free
then you’re up there on your mountain
trying to find some dignity
you grew up in the winters
and a black man drove your car
your people tried to change you
but they didn’t get too far
you gave them back their money
you said you wanted something pure
you spoke with such great certainty
you thought you might be sure
playing a game of catch me if you can
and may the devil or the angel win the hand
they can find me but i’ll never take the stand
a desperate man
desperate man
now the cross is on the mountain
but the churches will not fill
all the lovers pray in rooms
from where they see it standing still
there are k!llers on our radios
and their poisons fill the air
but tonight i heard a drunkard
sing your sweet songs in the square
