Leonard Cohen 1988年I&9m Your Man專輯中的作品
21年前的錄音室作品,當時詩人年54矣.
世事早將詩人訓練得聰穎中有世故,聰明間存憤激.今夜秋風清涼,乾淨得聽得出詩人早年吟唱歌詩中的內斂而坦誠的激情.
無可奈何之中,清醒的乾了自己這一杯.
如果是夜依然無藥可解
那就唱著
Ain&9t no cure for love
祝921生日的老詩精75齡生日快樂
May God bless you.

Ain&9t No Cure For Love
I loved you for a long, long time
I know this love is real
It don&9t matter how it all went wrong
That don&9t change the way I feel
And I can&9t believe that time&9s
Gonna heal this wound I&9m speaking of
There ain&9t no cure,
There ain&9t no cure,
There ain&9t no cure for love.
I&9m aching for you baby
I can&9t pretend I&9m not
I need to see you naked
In your body and your thought
I&9ve got you like a habit
And I&9ll never get enough
There ain&9t no cure,
There ain&9t no cure,
There ain&9t no cure for love
There ain&9t no cure for love
There ain&9t no cure for love
All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky
The holy books are open wide
The doctors working day and night
But they&9ll never ever find that cure for love
There ain&9t no drink no drug
(Ah tell them, angels)
There&9s nothing pure enough to be a cure for love
I see you in the subwayand I see you on the bus
I see you lying down with me, I see you waking up
I see your hand, I see your hair
Your bracelets and your brush
And I call to you, I call to you
But I don&9t call soft enough
There ain&9t no cure,
There ain&9t no cure,
There ain&9t no cure for love
I walked into this empty church I had no place else to go
When the sweetest voice I ever heard, whispered to my soul
I don&9t need to be forgiven for loving you so much
It&9s written in the scriptures
It&9s written there in blood
I even heard the angels declare it from above
There ain&9t no cure,
There ain&9t no cure,
There ain&9t no cure for love
There ain&9t no cure for love
There ain&9t no cure for love
All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky
The holy books are open wide
The doctors working day and night
But they&9ll never ever find that cure,
That cure for love
