Leonard Cohen - Night Comes On слова песни

I went down to the placeWhere I knew she lay waitingUnder the marble and the snowI said, mother Im frightenedThe thunder and the lightningIll never come through this aloneShe said, Ill be with youMy shawl wrapped around youMy hand on your head when you goAnd the night came onIt was very calmI wanted the night to go on and onBut she said, go back to the worldWe were fighting in egyptWhen they signed this agreementThat nobody else had to dieThere was this terrible soundAnd my father went downWith a terrible wound in his sideHe said, try to go onTake my books, take my gunRemember, my son, how they liedAnd the night comes onIts very calmId like to pretend that my father was wrongBut you dont want to lie, not to the youngWe were locked in this kitchenI took to religionAnd I wondered how long she would stayI needed so muchTo have nothing to touchIve always been greedy that wayBut my son and my daughterClimbed out of the waterCrying, papa, you promised to playAnd they lead me awayTo the great surpriseIts papa, dont peek, papa, cover your eyesAnd they hide, they hide in the worldNow I look for her alwaysIm lost in this callingIm tied to the threads of some prayerSaying, when will she summon meWhen will she come to meWhat must I do to prepareWhen she bends to my longingLike a willow, like a fountainShe stands in the luminous airAnd the night comes onAnd its very calmI lie in her arms and says, when Im goneIll be yours, yours for a songNow the crickets are singingThe vesper bells ringingThe cats curled asleep in his chairIll go down to bills barI can make it that farAnd Ill see if my friends are still thereYes, and heres to the fewWho forgive what you doAnd the fewer who dont even careAnd the night comes onIts very calmI want to cross over, I want to go homeBut she says, go back, go back to the world
