Leonard Cohen - There for You lyrics

When it all went down
And the pain came through i get it now
I was there for you

Don't ask me how i know it's true
I get it now i was there for you

I make my plans like I always do
But when I look back i was there for you

I walk the streets like I used to do
And I freeze with fear but I'm there for you

I see my life in full review
It was never me it was always you

You sent me here you sent me there
Breaking things i can't repair

Making objects out of thoughts
Making more than by thinking not

Eating food and drinking wine
A body that i thought was mine

Dressed as Arab dressed as Jew
O mask of iron i was there for you

Moods of glory moods so foul
The world comes through a bloody towel

And death is old but it's always new
I freeze with fear and I'm there for you

I see it clear i always knew
It was never me i was there for you
I was there for you my darling one
And by your law it all was done

Don't ask me how i know it's true
I get it now i was there for you

Don't ask me how i know it's true
I get it now i was there for you

Don't ask me how i know it's true
I get it now i was there for you

Don't ask me how i know it's true
I get it now i was there for you
