Текст (слова) песни: Leonard Cohen - Leaving Green Sleeves
Alas, my love, you did me wrong, To cast me out discourteously, For I have loved you so long, Delighting in your very company. Now if you intend to show me disdain, Don`t you know it all the more enraptures me, For even so I still remain your lover in captivity.
Green sleeves, you`re all alone, The leaves have fallen, the men have gone. Green sleeves, there`s no one home, Not even the Lady Green Sleeves.
I sang my songs, I told my lies, To lie between your matchless thighs. And ain`t it fine, ain`t it wild To finally end our exercise Then I saw you naked in the early dawn, Oh, I hoped you would be someone new. I reached for you but you were gone, So lady I`m going too.
Green sleeves, you`re all alone ...
Green sleeves, you`re all alone, The leaves have fallen, the men have all gone home. Green sleeves, it`s so easily done, Leaving the Lady Green Sleeves.
