Leonard Cohen - Going Home lyrics

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 defeatLeonard Cohen - Going Home - http://motolyrics.com/leonard-cohen/going-home-lyrics.html
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
