Lyrics
they touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem
We weren t lovers like that and besides it would still be all right, they were waiting for me when i thought that i just can t go on
When i left they were sleeping, oh i hope you run into them of, we weren t lovers like that and besides it would still be all right
And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song, they will bind you with love that is graceful and green as a stem Sisters, and they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song
They touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem, but soon it comes around to your soul, and they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song
but soon it comes around to your soul
We weren t lovers like that and besides it would still be all right, they are not departed or gone
don t turn on the lights
They touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem, you can read their address by the moon
If your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn, they touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem Cohen, and they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song
And you won t make me jealous if i hear that they sweetened your night, your loneliness says that you ve sinned, oh the sisters of mercy
if your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn
You can read their address by the moon, we weren t lovers like that and besides it would still be all right, oh the sisters of mercy
When i left they were sleeping, oh the sisters of mercy
they touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem
I made my confession to them, they touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem
they are not departed or gone
Don t turn on the lights, when i left they were sleeping, oh the sisters of mercy
you can read their address by the moon
They touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem, they were waiting for me when i thought that i just can t go on
Oh i hope you run into them, you who ve been travelling so long
you can read their address by the moon
they touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem
your loneliness says that you ve sinned
Oh i hope you run into them, yes you who must leave everything that you cannot control
They touched both my eyes and i touched the dew on their hem, and they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song Cohen, if your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn
But soon it comes around to your soul, if your life is a leaf that the seasons tear off and condemn
And you won t make me jealous if i hear that they sweetened your night, but soon it comes around to your soul
