Leonard Cohen - The law

Tekst :

How many times did you call me
And I knew it was late
I left everybody
But I never went straight
I don t claim to be guilty
But I do understand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand
Now my heart s like a blister
From doing what I do
If the moon has a sister
It s got to be you
I m going to miss you forever
Tho it s not what I planned
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand

Now the deal has been dirty
Since dirty began
I m not asking for mercy
Not from the man
You just don t ask for mercy
While you re still on the stand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand

I don t claim to be guilty
Guilty s too grand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand

That s all I can say, baby
That s all I can say
It wasn t for nothing
That they put me away
I fell with my angel
Down the chain of command
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand
There s a Law, there s an Arm, there s a Hand

    Fera ventura

    Quai eghezza di lauro?
    Non è quai il mio destino...
    Quai veghezza di mirto?
    Indierto mi rivolgo....

    L dubbio m assale
    L dubbio m assale
    Non ti rimembra
    Disiata forma?

    L dubbio m assle

    L dubbio m assle

    Non spero pieta

    Musisz wierzyć

    Dzisiaj zgubie się
    W Twoich smutnych oczach
    Wszyscy niech, obrażą teraz się
    Skreślono dawno nas
    Jesteśmy już straceni
    Cały świat zniknie nagle nam

    Musisz wierzyć,
    Że to może się zdarzyć,
    Bo przecież
    Gdzieś tam jest, ktoś kto też w to wierzy
    On Cię wybrał,
    Dawno temu wymyślił Cię sobie
    I...

    Split second

    I did not want to be stuck
    One second longer than I had to be there,
    Stuck inside the door.
    I m always scared I ll slam my fingers in the door
    Because the last time that I left
    I slammed my fingers in the...

    Daytime friends

    And he ll tell her - He s working late again
    But she knows to well there s something goin on.
    She s been neglected - and she needs a friend
    So her trembling fingers dial the telephone.

    And Lord, it hurts her -...

    Stand by

    Stand by, stand by

    We thought our lives were meant to last
    We thought bad dreams were in the past
    We thought forever was eternity

    And if we, we try together we can climb
    The highest mountains any time
    We ll live forever and eternally

    Cause I can see stars taking cover
    Stand by, I can see birds...
