Leonard Cohen - Dimensions of Love lyrics
[Leonard Cohen - Dimensions of Love lyrics]
Sometimes I hear you stop abruptly
And change your direction
And start towards me
I hear it as a kind of rustling
My heart leaps up to greet you
To greet you in the air
To take you back home
To resume our long life together
Then I remember
The uncrossable dimensions of love
And I prepare myself
For the consequences of memory and longing
But memory with it's list of years
Turns gracefully aside
And longing kneels down like a calf
In the straw of amazement
And for the moment that it takes
To keep your death alive we are refreshed
In each other's timeless company
And change your direction
And start towards me
I hear it as a kind of rustling
My heart leaps up to greet you
To greet you in the air
To take you back home
To resume our long life together
Then I remember
The uncrossable dimensions of love
And I prepare myself
For the consequences of memory and longing
But memory with it's list of years
Turns gracefully aside
And longing kneels down like a calf
In the straw of amazement
And for the moment that it takes
To keep your death alive we are refreshed
In each other's timeless company
