Leonard Cohen - Show Me the Place lyrics

[Leonard Cohen - Show Me the Place lyrics]

Show me the place where you
Want your slave to go
Show me the place I've forgotten I don't know
Show me the place where my
Head is bendin' low
Show me the place where you
Want your slave to go

Show me the place
Help me roll away the stone
Show me the place
I can't move this thing alone
Show me the place where the word became a man
Show me the place where the suffering began

The troubles came I saved what I could save
A thread of light, a particle, a wave
But there were chains
So I hastened to behave there were chains
So I loved you like a slave

Show me the place where you
Want your slave to go
Show me the place I've forgotten I don't know
Show me the place where my
Head is bendin' low
Show me the place where you
Want your slave to go

The troubles came I saved what I could save
A thread of light, a particle, a wave
But there were chains
So I hastened to behave there were chains
So I loved you like a slave

Show me the place show me the place
Show me the place

Show me the place
Help me roll away the stone
Show me the place
I can't move this thing alone
Show me the place where the word became a man
Show me the place where the suffering began
