On the Level歌词

作词 : Leonard Cohen
作曲 : Sharon Robinson
I knew that it was wrong

I didn't have a doubt

I was dying to get back home

And you were starting out

I said I'd best be moving on

You said we have all day

You smiled at me like I was young
It took my breath away

Your crazy fragrance all around

Your secrets all in view

My loss my loss was saying found
My don't was saying do

Let's keep it on the level

When I walked away from you walked away
I turned my back on the devil
Turned my back on the angel too

They oughta give my heart a medal

For letting go of you letting go
When I turned my back on the devil
Turned my back on the angel too

Now I'm living in this temple

Where they tell you what to do

I'm old and I've had to settle

On a different point of view

I was fighting with temptation

But I didn't want to win

A man like me don't like to see

Temptation caving in

Your crazy fragrance all around

Your secrets in my view

My loss my loss was saying found
My don't was saying do

Let's keep it on the level

When I walked away from you walked away from
I turned my back on the devil
Turned my back on the angel too angel too

They oughta give my heart a medal

For letting go of you letting go of
When I turned my back on the devil
Turned my back on the angel too

They oughta give my heart a medal

For letting go of you letting go of
When I turned my back on the devil
Turned my back on the angel too
