Текст (слова) песни: Leonard Cohen - Sisters Of Mercy
Oh the sisters of mercy, they are not departed or gone. They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can`t go on. And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song. Oh I hope you run into them, you who`ve been travelling so long. Yes you who must leave everything that you cannot control. It begins with your family, but soon it comes around to your soul. Well I`ve been where you`re hanging, I think I can see how you`re pinned: When you`re not feeling holy, your loneliness says that you`ve sinned.
Well they lay down beside me, I made my confession to them. They touched both my eyes and I touched the dew on their hem. If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn they will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem.
When I left they were sleeping, I hope you run into them soon. Don`t turn on the lights, you can read their address by the moon. And you won`t make me jealous if I hear that they sweetened your night: We weren`t lovers like that and besides it would still be all right, We weren`t lovers like that and besides it would still be all right.
