EN
I thought I saw something real in Barcelona, in Brooklyn But I've learned the power now of manic delusions I remember Leonard Cohen And your tears and how you used to cry And you’d thank me, you'd thank me for not asking you why My darling, my baby, we have a bond that will not break It will not change, it will not fade No matter how many times I am replaced Stay with her and stay away Stay with her and stay away Did you want to ask your little lady Why she's crying and changing her sheets? Why she’s lighting the sage as you're biking away? Well I can promise you she's gonna sleep all day Feel the weight Your native state Feel the weight Your native state I remember all the chiller names you had for disrespect Your cruelty and cavalier way with regret Was proved by the news of how you moved Inside my long-haired ladyfriend My darling, my baby, I hope you're more than just a pretty face I wish you well, I wish you peace I wish you real love someday You're beautiful and you'll always meet someone But when you're gone You'll be tattooed under mountains on my arm You’ll be tattooed under mountains on my arm You’ll be tattooed under mountains on my arm
