Leonard Cohen - Light As The Breeze Lyrics
She stands before you *****You can see it, you can taste it,And she comes to you light as the breeze.Now you can drink it or you can nurse it,It dont matter how you worshipAs long as youreDown on your knees.So I knelt there at the delta,At the alpha and the omega,At the cradle of the river and the seas.And like a blessing come from heavenFor something like a secondI was healed and my heartWas at ease.O baby I waitedSo long for your kissFor something to happen,Oh something like this.And youre weak and youre harmlessAnd youre sleeping in your harnessAnd the wind going wildIn the trees,And it aint exactly prisonBut youll never be forgivenFor whatever youve doneWith the keys.O baby I waited ...Its dark now and its snowingO my love I must be going,The river has started to freeze.And Im sick of pretendingIm broken from bendingIve lived too long on my knees.Then she dances so gracefulAnd your hearts hard and hatefulAnd shes *****But thats just a tease.And you turn in disgustFrom your hatred and from your loveAnd comes to youLight as the breeze.O baby I waited ...Theres blood on every braceletYou can see it, you can taste it,And its please babyPlease baby please.And she says, drink deeply, pilgrimBut dont forget theres still a womanBeneath thisResplendent chemise.So I knelt there at the delta,At the alpha and the omega,I knelt there like one who believes.And the blessings come from heavenAnd for something like a secondIm cured and my heartIs at ease.
