31. Marianne
Leonard Cohen
Come over to the window, my little darling I'd like to try to read your palm I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy Before I let you take me home [Chorus] Oh so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again [Verse 4] Your letters they all say that you're beside me now Then why do I feel alone? I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web Is fastening my ankle to a stone [Chorus] Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again [Verse 5] For now I need your hidden love I'm cold as a new razor blade You left when I told you I was curious I never said that I was brave [Chorus] Oh so long, Marianne, it's time that we began To laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again [Verse 6] Oh, you are really such a pretty one I see you've gone and changed your name again And just when I climbed this whole mountainside To wash my eyelids in the rain
