Leonard Cohen - Book Of Longing Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I can't make the hills
The system is shot
I’m living on pills
For which I thank God
I followed the course
From chaos to art
Desire: the horse
Depression: the cart

[Chorus 1]
And I know she is coming
I know she will look
And that is my longing
And this is my book

[Verse 2]
My page was too white
My ink was too thin
The day wouldn't write
What the night penciled in
My animal howls
My angel's upset
But I’m not allowed
A trace of regret
[Chorus 1]
And I know she is coming
I know she will look
And that is my longing
And this is my book

[Bridge]
She'll step on the path
She'll see what I mean
My will cut in half
And freedom between
For less than a second
Our lives will collide
The endless suspended
The door opened wide

[Verse 1]
I can't make the hills
The system is shot
I'm living on pills
For which I thank God

[Chorus 2]
And I know she is coming
I know she will look
And that is my longing
And this is my book
And I know she is coming
I know she will look
And that is the longing
And this is the book
