The Great Event (Album Version)歌词
作词 : Leonard Cohen
作曲 : Leonard Cohen
It's going to happen very soon.
The great event which will end the horror.
Which will end the sorrow.
Next Tuesday, when the sun goes down,
I will play the Moonlight Sonata backwards.
This will reverse the effects of the world's mad plunge into suffering,
for the last 200 million years.
What a lovely night that would be.
What a sigh of relief, as the senile robins become bright red again,
and the retired nightingales, pick up their dusty tails,
and assert the majesty of creation!
