Leonard Cohen You Know Who I Am

[futuredreamspresent&past]

I cannot follow you, my love,
you cannot follow me.
I am the distance you put between
all of the moments that we will be.
You know who I am,
you've stared at the sun,
well I am the one who loves
changing from nothing to one.

Sometimes I need you naked,
sometimes I need you wild,
I need you to carry my children in
and I need you to kill a child.

You know who I am...

If you should ever track me down
I will surrender there
and I will leave with you one broken man
whom I will teach you to repair.

You know who I am...

I cannot follow you, my love,
you cannot follow me.
I am the distance you put between
all of the moments that we will be.

You know who I am...

Cohen is one of my favourite singers, the song from Live Songs has an extra verse:

I cannot follow you, my love,
you cannot follow me.
I am not life, I am not death,
I am not slave or free.
