Leonard Cohen - Going Home Lyrics

Font:

  • copied from new yorker website (apparently I can't include the weblink here)
  • I love to speak with Leonard
  • He's a sportsman and a shepherd
  • He's a lazy bastard
  • Living in a suit
  • But he does say what I tell him
  • Even though it isn't welcome
  • He will never have the freedom
  • To refuse
  • He will speak these words of wisdom
  • Like a sage, a man of vision
  • Though he knows he's really nothing
  • But the brief elaboration of a tube
  • Going home
  • Without my sorrow
  • Going home
  • Sometime tomorrow
  • To where it's better
  • Than before
  • Going home
  • Without my burden
  • Going home
  • Behind the curtain
  • Going home
  • Without the costume
  • That I wore
  • He wants to write a love song
  • An anthem of forgiving
  • A manual for living with defeat
  • A cry above the suffering
  • A sacrifice recovering
  • But that isn't what I want him to complete
  • I want to make him certain
  • That he doesn't have a burden
  • That he doesn't need a vision
  • That he only has permission
  • To do my instant bidding
  • That is to SAY what I have told him
  • To repeat
  • Going home
  • Without my sorrow
  • Going home
  • Sometime tomorrow
  • Going home
  • To where it's better
  • Than before
  • Going home
  • Without my burden
  • Going home
  • Behind the curtain
  • Going home
  • Without the costume
  • That I wore
  • I love to speak with Leonard
  • He's a sportsman and a shepherd
  • He's a lazy bastard
  • Living in a suit
