[00:00.000] 作词 : Leonard Cohen
[00:01.000] 作曲 : Phil Spector
[00:38.420] Ah the man she wanted all her life was hanging by a thread
[00:46.390] "I never even knew how much I wanted you," she said
[00:54.330] His muscles, they were numbered, and his style was obsolete
[01:02.250] "Oh baby, I have come too late." “
[01:07.090] She knelt beside his feet
[01:16.830] "I'll never see a face like yours in years of men to come “
[01:24.630] I'll never see such arms again in wrestling or love."
[01:32.820] And all his virtues burning in the smokey holocaust
[01:40.680] She took unto herself most everything her lover lost
[02:00.810] Now the master of this landscape, he was standing at the view
[02:08.470] With a sparrow of st. francis that he was preaching to
[02:16.960] She beckoned to the sentry of his high religious mood
[02:24.370] She said, "I'll make a place between my legs, I'll teach you solitude."
[02:48.010] He offered her an orgy in a many mirrored room
[02:53.590] He promised her protection for the issue of her womb
[03:01.760] She moved her body hard against a sharpened metal spoon
[03:11.610] She stopped the bloody rituals of passage to the moon
[04:05.470] She took his much admired oriental frame of mind
[04:12.440] And the heart-of-darkness alibi his money hides behind
[04:21.240] She took his blonde madonna and his monastery wine
[04:29.200] "This mental space is occupied and everything is mine. “
[04:45.290] He tried to make a final stand beside the railway track
[04:52.790] She said, "The art of longing's over and it's never coming back."
[05:00.870] She took his tavern parliament, his cap, his cocky dance
[05:08.970] She mocked his female fashions and his working-class moustache
[05:29.180] The last time that I saw him he was trying hard to get
[05:37.020] A woman's education, but he's not a woman yet
[05:44.740] And the last time that I saw her she was living with some boy
[05:52.860] Who gives her soul an empty room and gives her body joy
[06:11.720] So the great affair is over, but whoever would have guessed
[06:22.860] It would leave us all so vacant and so deeply unimpressed
[06:33.280] It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
[06:43.180] I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far
[07:27.180] It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
[07:37.020] I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far
[08:34.360] It's like our visit to the moon or to that other star
[08:44.390] I guess you go for nothing if you really want to go that far
