Текст (слова) песни: Leonard Cohen - Night Comes On



I went down to the place

Where I knew she lay waiting

Under the marble and the snow

I said, mother Im frightened

The thunder and the lightning

Ill never come through this alone

She said, Ill be with you

My shawl wrapped around you

My hand on your head when you go

And the night came on

It was very calm

I wanted the night to go on and on

But she said, go back to the world

We were fighting in egypt

When they signed this agreement

That nobody else had to die

There was this terrible sound

And my father went down

With a terrible wound in his side

He said, try to go on

Take my books, take my gun

Remember, my son, how they lied

And the night comes on

Its very calm

Id like to pretend that my father was wrong

But you dont want to lie, not to the young

We were locked in this kitchen

I took to religion

And I wondered how long she would stay

I needed so much

To have nothing to touch

Ive always been greedy that way

But my son and my daughter

Climbed out of the water

Crying, papa, you promised to play

And they lead me away

To the great surprise

Its papa, dont peek, papa, cover your eyes

And they hide, they hide in the world

Now I look for her always

Im lost in this calling

Im tied to the threads of some prayer

Saying, when will she summon me

When will she come to me

What must I do to prepare

When she bends to my longing

Like a willow, like a fountain

She stands in the luminous air

And the night comes on

And its very calm

I lie in her arms and says, when Im gone

Ill be yours, yours for a song

Now the crickets are singing

The vesper bells ringing

The cats curled asleep in his chair

Ill go down to bills bar

I can make it that far

And Ill see if my friends are still there

Yes, and heres to the few

Who forgive what you do

And the fewer who dont even care

And the night comes on

Its very calm

I want to cross over, I want to go home

But she says, go back, go back to the world
