Ultimate Leonard Cohen Lyrics Quiz

Sometimes I need you naked, sometimes I need you wild

I was fighting with temptation But I didn't want to win A man like me don't like to see Temptation caving in

I had to leave My life behind I dug some graves You'll never find

I stormed the old casino For the money and the flesh And I myself decided What was rotten and what was fresh

I listened to your kisses at the door I never heard the world so clear before

I will step into the ring for you And if you want a doctor I'll examine every inch of you

There are many in your life And many still to be Since you are a shining light There's many that you'll see

Lately you've started to stutter as though you had nothing to say. To all of my architects let me be traitor. Now let me say I myself gave the order to sleep and to search and to destroy.

I loved you for your beauty but that doesn't make a fool of me:

You sail the mighty ocean On a yacht designed for you

It’s a shame and it’s a pity I know you can’t forgive me The ending got so ugly You never ever loved me

For the millions in a prison, That wealth has set apart – For the Christ who has not risen, From the caverns of the heart –

You tell him to come in sit down but something makes you turn around The door is open you can't close your shelter

Some women wait for Jesus, and some women wait for Cain

I'd like to take you take you to the ceremony, well, that is if I remember the way.
