Leonard Cohen So Long Marianne lyrics

(from the album 'SONGS OF LEONARD COHEN')


Come over to the window, my little darling,
I'd like to try to read your palm.
I used to think I was some kind of Gypsy boy
before I let you take me home.

Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.

Well you know that I love to live with you,
but you make me forget so very much.
I forget to pray for the angels
and then the angels forget to pray for us.

Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began ...

We met when we were almost young
deep in the green lilac park.
You held on to me like I was a crucifix,
as we went kneeling through the dark.

Oh so long, Marianne, it's time that we began ...

Your letters they all say that you're beside me now.
Then why do I feel alone?
I'm standing on a ledge and your fine spider web
is fastening my ankle to a stone.

Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began ...

For now I need your hidden love.
I'm cold as a new razor blade.
You left when I told you I was curious,
I never said that I was brave.

Oh so long, Marianne, it's time that we began ...

Oh, you are really such a pretty one.
I see you've gone and changed your name again.
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside,
to wash my eyelids in the rain!

Oh so long, Marianne, it's time that we began ...

EN FRANCAIS

Traduction de Jean Guiloineau :



Adieu Marianne



Viens pres de la fenetre, ma petite
Je veux te lire les lignes de la main
Je me prenais pour une sorte de gitan
Avant que je te laisse me ramener chez toi

Adieu Marianne
C'est l'heure ou nous commencions
A rire et a pleurer a pleurer et a rire
A nouveau de tout

Tu sais que j'aime vivre avec toi
Mais tu me fais tant oublier
J'oublie de prier les anges
Et les anges oublient de prier pour nous

Nous etions presque jeunes lors de notre rencontre
En bas du parc des lilas verts
Tu t'es accrochee a moi comme a un crucifix
En allant nous agenouiller dans la nuit

Tes lettres disent que tu es pres de moi
Alors pourquoi suis-je si seul
Je me tiens sur ce rebord et ta toile d'araignee
Attache ma cheville a un rocher

Maintenant j'ai besoin de ton amour cache
J'ai froid comme une lame de rasoir neuve
Tu es partie quand je t'ai dit que j'etais curieux
Je n'avais jamais dit que j'etais courageux

O tu es vraiment tres belle
Tu as change de nom et tu es partie
Au moment ou j'escaladais cette montagne
Pour laver mes paupieres sous la pluie

Tes yeux, j'ai oublie tes yeux
Ton corps est chez lui dans toutes les mers
Pourquoi as-tu donne de tes nouvelles a tous
Alors que tu disais que c'etait notre secret

Adieu Marianne
C'est l'heure ou nous commencions
A rire et a pleurer a pleurer et a rire
A nouveau de tout
