Leonard Cohen "Recitation" paroles

Recitation

You came to me this morningAnd you handled me like meatYou'd have to be a man to knowHow good that feels, how sweet

My mirror twin, my next of kinI'd know you in my sleepAnd who but you would take me inA thousand kisses deep

I loved you when you openedLike a lily to the heatYou see I'm just another snowmanStanding in the rain and sleet

Who loved you with his frozen loveHis secondhand physiqueWith all he is and all he wasA thousand kisses deep

I know you had to lie to meI know you had to cheatTo pose all hot and highBehind the veils of sheer deceit

Our perfect porn aristocratSo elegant and cheapI'm old but I'm still into thatA thousand kisses deep

I'm good at love, I'm good at hateIt's in between I freezeBeen working out but it's too lateIt's been too late for years

But you look good, you really doThey love you on the streetIf you were here I'd kneel for youA thousand kisses deep

The autumn moved across your skinGot something in my eyeA light that doesn't need to liveAnd doesn't need to die

A riddle in the book of loveObscure and obsoleteAnd witnessed here in time and bloodA thousand kisses deep

But I'm still working with the wineStill dancing cheek to cheekThe band is playing Auld Lang SyneBut the heart will not retreat

I ran with Diz, I sang with RayI never had their sweetBut once or twice they let me playA thousand kisses deep

I loved you when you openedLike a lily to the heatYou see I'm just another snowmanStanding in the rain and sleet

Who loved you with his frozen loveHis secondhand physiqueWith all he is and all he wasA thousand kisses deep

But you don't need to hear me nowAnd every word I speakIt counts against me anyhowA thousand kisses deep.
