《Alexandra Leaving》歌词

[00:00:00] Alexandra Leaving - Leonard Cohen (莱昂纳德·科恩)

[00:00:00] Written by：Sharon Robi

[00:00:01] Suddenly the night has grown colder

[00:00:10] The God of love preparing to depart

[00:00:18] Alexandra hoisted on his shoulder

[00:00:26] They slip between the sentries of the heart

[00:00:33] Upheld by the simplicities of pleasure

[00:00:42] They gain the light they formlessly entwine

[00:00:51] And radiant beyond your widest measure

[00:00:59] They fall among the voices and the wine

[00:01:08] It's not a trick your senses all deceiving

[00:01:16] A fitful dream the morning will exhaust

[00:01:25] Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving

[00:01:33] Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost

[00:01:43] Even though she sleeps upon your satin

[00:01:51] Even though she wakes you with a kiss

[00:01:59] Do not say the moment was imagined

[00:02:08] Do not stoop to strategies like this

[00:02:16] As someone long prepared for this to happen

[00:02:24] Go firmly to the window drink it in

[00:02:31] Exquisite music Alexandra laughing

[00:02:40] Your firm commitments tangible again

[00:02:49] And you who had the honor of her evening

[00:02:58] And by the honor had your own restored

[00:03:06] Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving

[00:03:15] Alexandra leaving with her Lord

[00:03:22] Even though she sleeps upon your satin

[00:03:30] Even though she wakes you with a kiss

[00:03:39] Do not say the moment was imagined

[00:03:47] Do not stoop to strategies like this

[00:03:57] As someone long prepared for the occasion

[00:04:05] In full command of every plan you wrecked

[00:04:14] Do not choose a coward's explanation

[00:04:22] That hides behind the cause and the effect

[00:04:29] And you who were bewildered by a meaning

[00:04:37] Whose code was broken crucifix uncrossed

[00:04:45] Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving

[00:04:54] Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost

[00:05:02] Say goodbye to Alexandra leaving

[00:05:15] Then say goodbye to Alexandra lost
