LEONARD COHEN lyrics : "There For You"

When it all went down
And the pain came through
I get it now

I was there for you
Don't ask me how
I know it's true

I get it now
I was there for you
I make my plans

Like I always do
But when I look back
I was there for you

I walk the streets
Like I used to do
And I freeze with fear

But I'm there for you
I see my life
In full review

It was never me
It was always you
You sent me here

You sent me there
Breaking things
I can't repair

Making objects
Out of thoughts
Making more

By thinking not
Eating food
And drinking wine

A body that
I thought was mine
Dressed as Arab

Dressed as Jew
O mask of iron
I was there for you

Moods of glory
Moods so foul
The world comes through

A bloody towel
And death is old
But it's always new

I freeze with fear
And I'm there for you
I see it clear

I always knew
It was never me
I was there for you

I was there for you
My darling one
And by your law

It all was done
