Leonard Cohen Lyrics

Album: Dear Heather

Because Of Lyrics

Because of a few songs

 Wherein I spoke of their mystery,

 Women have been

 Exceptionally kind

 to my old age.

 They make a secret place

 In their busy lives

 And they take me there.

 They become naked

 In their different ways

 and they say,

 "Look at me, Leonard

 Look at me one last time."

 Then they bend over the bed

 And cover me up

 Like a baby that is shivering.
