If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love
I'll wear a mask for you
If you want a partner
Take my hand
Or if you want to strike me down in anger
Here I stand
I'm your man
If you want a boxer
I will step into the ring for you
And if you want a doctor
I'll examine every inch of you
If you want a driver
Climb inside
Or if you want to take me for a ride
You know you can
I'm your man
Ah, the moon's too bright
The chain's too tight
The beast won't go to sleep
I've been runnin' through, these promises to you
That I made and I could not keep
Ah but a man never got a woman back
Not by beggin' on his knees
Or I'd crawl to you baby
And I'd fall at your feet
And I'd howl at your beauty
Like a dog in heat
And I'd claw at your heart
And I'd tear at your sheet
I'd say please
I'm your man
And if you've got to sleep
A moment on the road
I will steer for you
And if you want to work the street alone
I'll disappear for you
If you want a father for your child
Or only wanna walk with me a while
Across the sand
I'm your man
If you want a lover
I'll do anything you ask me to
And if you want another kind of love

If it be your will
If it be your will
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
If it be your will
If it be your will
That a voice be true
From this broken hill
I will sing to you
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing
If it be your will
If there is a choice
Let the rivers fill
Let the hills rejoice
Let your mercy spill
On all these burning hearts in hell
If it be your will
To make us well
And draw us near
And bind us tight
All your children here
In their rags of light
In our rags of light
All dressed to kill
And end this night
If it be your will
If it be your will.
That I speak no more
And my voice be still
As it was before
I will speak no more
I shall abide until
I am spoken for
If it be your will
If it be your will
That a voice be true
From this broken hill
I will sing to you
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing
From this broken hill
All your praises they shall ring
If it be your will
To let me sing
If it be your will
If there is a choice
Let the rivers fill
Let the hills rejoice
Let your mercy spill
On all these burning hearts in hell
If it be your will
To make us well
And draw us near
And bind us tight
All your children here
In their rags of light
In our rags of light
All dressed to kill
And end this night
If it be your will
If it be your will.
Leonard Cohen
Eğer isteğin buysa
Bir daha hiç konuşmamam
Ve sesimin susması
Eskiden olduğu gibi
Artık konuşmam
Beklerim ta ki
Bana seslenene kadar
Eğer isteğin buysa
Eğer isteğin buysa
Sesin gerçek olmasıBu kırık tepeden
Sana şarkı söyleyeceğim
Bu kırık tepeden
Sana bütün övgüleri çalsınlar
Eğer isteğin buysa
Bana şarkı söyletmek
Bu kırık tepeden
Sana bütün övgüleri çalsınlar
Eğer isteğin buysa
Bana şarkı söyletmek
Eğer isteğin buysa
Bir seçenek varsaIrmaklar dolsun
Tepeler şenlensin
Merhametin saçılsın
Cehennemdeki bütün yanan kalplere
Eğer isteğin buysa
Bizi iyileştirmeyeVe bizi yaklaştırmaya
Ve sıkıca sarmalamaya
Buradaki bütün çocuklarını
Işık paçavralarında
Işık paçavralarımızda
Öldürmek için giyilmiş
Ve geceyi sonlandırmaya
Eğer isteğin buysa
Eğer isteğin buysa

Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.

Hala çalabilen bütün zilleri çalın
Kusursuz adaklarınızı unutun
Bir çatlak var herşeyde
Sızabildiği içeri ışığın
Leonard Cohen
A thousand kisses deep (poem)
You came to me this morning
And you handled me like meat
Youd have to be a man to know
How good that feels, how sweet
My mirrored twin, my next of kin
Id know you in my sleep
And who but you would take me in
A thousand kisses deep
I loved you when you opened
Like a lily to the heat
You see Im just another snowman
Standing in the rain and sleet
Who loved you with his frozen love
His secondhand physique
With all he is and all he was
A thousand kisses deep
I know you had to lie to me
I know you had to cheat
To pose all hot and high
Behind the veils of sheer deceit
Our perfect porn aristocrat
So elegant and cheap
Im old but Im still into that
A thousand kisses deep
Im good at love, Im good at hate
Its in between I freeze
Been working out but its too late
(Its been too late for years)
But you look good, you really do
They love you on the street
If you were here Id kneel for you
A thousand kisses deep
The autumn moved across your skin
Got something in my eye
A light that doesnt need to live
And doesnt need to die
A riddle in the book of love
Obscure and obsolete
And witnessed here in time and blood
A thousand kisses deep
But Im still working with the wine
Still dancing cheek to cheek
The band is playing Auld Lang Syne
But the heart will not retreat
I ran with Diz, I sang with Ray
I never had their sweet
But once or twice they let me play
A thousand kisses deep
I loved you when you opened
Like a lily to the heat
You see Im just another snowman
Standing in the rain and sleet
Who loved you with his frozen love
His secondhand physique
With all he is and all he was
A thousand kisses deep
But you dont need to hear me now
And every word I speak
It counts against me anyhow
A thousand kisses deep
And you handled me like meat
Youd have to be a man to know
How good that feels, how sweet
My mirrored twin, my next of kin
Id know you in my sleep
And who but you would take me in
A thousand kisses deep
I loved you when you opened
Like a lily to the heat
You see Im just another snowman
Standing in the rain and sleet
Who loved you with his frozen love
His secondhand physique
With all he is and all he was
A thousand kisses deep
I know you had to lie to me
I know you had to cheat
To pose all hot and high
Behind the veils of sheer deceit
Our perfect porn aristocrat
So elegant and cheap
Im old but Im still into that
A thousand kisses deep
Im good at love, Im good at hate
Its in between I freeze
Been working out but its too late

And every word I speak
It counts against me anyhow
A thousand kisses deep
a thousand kisses deep (song)
the ponies run, the girls are young,
the odds are there to beat.
you win a while, and then it’s done –
your little winning streak.
and summoned now to deal
with your invincible defeat,
you live your life as if it’s real,
a thousand kisses deep.
i’m turning tricks, i’m getting fixed,
i’m back on boogie street.
you lose your grip, and then you slip
into the masterpiece.
and maybe i had miles to drive,
and promises to keep:
you ditch it all to stay alive,
a thousand kisses deep.
and sometimes when the night is slow,
the wretched and the meek,
we gather up our hearts and go,
a thousand kisses deep.
confined to sex, we pressed against
the limits of the sea:
i saw there were no oceans left
for scavengers like me.
i made it to the forward deck
i blessed our remnant fleet –
and then consented to be wrecked,
a thousand kisses deep.
i’m turning tricks, i’m getting fixed,
i’m back on boogie street.
i guess they won’t exchange the gifts
that you were meant to keep.
and quiet is the thought of you
the file on you complete,
except what we forgot to do,
a thousand kisses deep.
and sometimes when the night is slow,
the wretched and the meek,
we gather up our hearts and go,
a thousand kisses deep.
the ponies run, the girls are young,
the odds are there to beat…
the odds are there to beat.
you win a while, and then it’s done –
your little winning streak.
and summoned now to deal
with your invincible defeat,
you live your life as if it’s real,
a thousand kisses deep.

Anthem
The birds they sang
at the break of day
Start again
I heard them say
Don't dwell on what
has passed away
or what is yet to be.
Ah the wars they will
be fought again
The holy dove
She will be caught again
bought and sold
and bought again
the dove is never free.
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
We asked for signs
the signs were sent:
the birth betrayed
the marriage spent
Yeah the widowhood
of every government --
signs for all to see.
I can't run no more
with that lawless crowd
while the killers in high places
say their prayers out loud.
But they've summoned, they've summoned up
a thundercloud
and they're going to hear from me.
Ring the bells that still can ring ...
You can add up the parts
but you won't have the sum
You can strike up the march,
there is no drum
Every heart, every heart
to love will come
but like a refugee.
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
Ring the bells that still can ring
Forget your perfect offering
There is a crack, a crack in everything
That's how the light gets in.
That's how the light gets in.
