Leonard Cohen
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I loved you for a long long time
I know this love is real
It don't matter how it all went wrong
That don't change the way I feel
And I can't believe that time's gonna heal this wound that I'm speaking of
There ain't no cure for love
I'm aching for you, baby
I can't pretend I'm not
I need to see you naked in your body and your thought
I've got you like a habit and I'll never get enough
There ain't no cure for love
There ain't no cure for love
There ain't no cure for love
All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky,
The holy books are open wide, the doctors working day and night,
but they'll never ever find that cure for love
There ain't no drink, no drug,
There's nothing pure enough to be a cure for love
I see you in the subway and I see you on the bus
I see you lying down with me
I see you waking up
I see your hand, I see your hair, your bracelets and your brush
And I call to you, I call to you, but I don't call soft enough
There ain't no cure for love
I walked into this empty church
I had no place else to go
When the sweetest voice I ever heard, whispered to my soul
I don't need to be forgiven for loving you so much
It's written in the scriptures
It's written there in blood
I even heard the angels declare it from above
There ain't no cure for love
