Leonard Cohen - I Think I’ll Blame lyrics
[Leonard Cohen - I Think I’ll Blame lyrics]
I think I'll blame my death on you
But I don't know you well enough
If I did we'd be married now
For the full enjoyment (and I promise you
There is such a thing)
It is not enough to read between the lines
That is child's play
And we are not that fond of children
One day you will pick up this book
As if for the first time
And say to yourself:
I don't know how the guy pulled it off
Line after line rises from my predicament
The nerve, you'll say the fucking nerve
And strengthened by your indifference
To the matter not to mention
The entire question of the past
You will recall how good you were to me
How good I was to you
And standing at some commanding place
Like a window or a cliff you will know
The full enjoyment
But I don't know you well enough
If I did we'd be married now
For the full enjoyment (and I promise you
There is such a thing)
It is not enough to read between the lines
That is child's play
And we are not that fond of children
One day you will pick up this book
As if for the first time
And say to yourself:
I don't know how the guy pulled it off
Line after line rises from my predicament
The nerve, you'll say the fucking nerve
And strengthened by your indifference
To the matter not to mention
The entire question of the past
You will recall how good you were to me
How good I was to you
And standing at some commanding place
Like a window or a cliff you will know
The full enjoyment
