Leonard Cohen - Is This What You Wanted Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • You were the promise at dawn,
  • I was the morning after.
  • You were jesus christ my lord,
  • I was the money lender.
  • You were the sensitive woman,
  • I was the very reverend freud.
  • You were the manual orgasm,
  • I was the dirty little boy.
  • And is this what you wanted
  • To live in a house that is haunted
  • By the ghost of you and me?
  • Is this what you wanted ...
  • You were marlon brando,
  • I was steve mcqueen.
  • You were k.y. jelly,
  • I was vaseline.
  • You were the father of modern medicine,
  • I was mr. clean.
  • You where the whore and the beast of babylon,
  • I was rin tin tin.
  • And is this what you wanted ...
  • And is this what you wanted ...
  • You got old and wrinkled,
  • I stayed seventeen.
  • You lusted after so many,
  • I lay here with one.
  • You defied your solitude,
  • I came through alone.
  • You said you could never love me,
  • I undid your gown.
  • And is this what you wanted ...
  • And is this what you wanted ...
  • I mean is this what you wanted ...
  • Thats right, is this what you wanted ...
