"Going Home"

I love to speak with Leonard
He's a sportsman and a shepherd
He's a lazy bastard
Living in a suit

But he does say what I tell him
Even though it isn't welcome
He will never have the freedom
To refuse

He will speak these words of wisdom
Like a sage, a man of vision
Though he knows he's really nothing
But the brief elaboration of a tube

Going home
Without my sorrow
Going home
Sometime tomorrow
To where it's better
Than before

Going home
Without my burden
Going home
Behind the curtain
Going home
Without the costume
That I wore

He wants to write a love song
An anthem of forgiving
A manual for living with defeat

A cry above the suffering
A sacrifice recovering
But that isn't what I want him to complete

I want to make him certain
That he doesn't have a burden
That he doesn't need a vision

That he only has permission
To do my instant bidding
That is to SAY what I have told him
To repeat

Going home
Without my sorrow
Going home
Sometime tomorrow
Going home
To where it's better
Than before

Going home
Without my burden
Going home
Behind the curtain
Going home
Without the costume
That I wore

I love to speak with Leonard
He's a sportsman and a shepherd
He's a lazy bastard
Living in a suit

      Now I've heard there was a secret chord
      That David played, and it pleased the Lord
      But you don't really care for music, do you?
      It goes like this
      The fourth, the fifth
      The minor fall, the major lift
      The baffled king composing Hallelujah

      Hallelujah, Hallelujah
      Hallelujah, Hallelujah

      Your faith was strong but you needed proof
      You saw her bathing on the roof
      Her beauty and the moonlight overthrew you
      She tied you
      To a kitchen chair
      She broke your throne, and she cut your hair
      And from your lips she drew the Hallelujah

      Hallelujah, Hallelujah
      Hallelujah, Hallelujah

      You say I took the name in vain
      I don't even know the name
      But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
      There's a blaze of light
      In every word
      It doesn't matter which you heard
      The holy or the broken Hallelujah

      Hallelujah, Hallelujah
      Hallelujah, Hallelujah

      I did my best, it wasn't much
      I couldn't feel, so I tried to touch
      I've told the truth, I didn't come to fool you
      And even though
      It all went wrong
      I'll stand before the Lord of Song
      With nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

      Hallelujah, Hallelujah
      Hallelujah, Hallelujah

              "In My Secret Life"

              I saw you this morning.
              You were moving so fast.
              Can’t seem to loosen my grip
              On the past.
              And I miss you so much.
              There’s no one in sight.
              And we’re still making love
              In My Secret Life.

              I smile when I’m angry.
              I cheat and I lie.
              I do what I have to do
              To get by.
              But I know what is wrong,
              And I know what is right.
              And I’d die for the truth
              In My Secret Life.

              Hold on, hold on, my brother.
              My sister, hold on tight.
              I finally got my orders.
              I’ll be marching through the morning,
              Marching through the night,
              Moving cross the borders
              Of My Secret Life.

              Looked through the paper.
              Makes you want to cry.
              Nobody cares if the people
              Live or die.
              And the dealer wants you thinking
              That it’s either black or white.
              Thank G-d it’s not that simple
              In My Secret Life.

              I bite my lip.
              I buy what I’m told:
              From the latest hit,
              To the wisdom of old.
              But I’m always alone.
              And my heart is like ice.
              And it’s crowded and cold
              In My Secret Life.

      Znalazłam zapis video wczorajszego koncertu w Trójce Lory Szafran z materiałem z całkiem świeżej płyty "Sekrety życia według L. Cohena".
      Hmmm....
      Nie do końca mam zdanie, bo bardzo lubię Lorę Szafran, jeszcze bardziej Cohena, ale tłumaczenia M. Zembatego już mniej. Moim zdaniem brakuje im poetyczności oryginałów. A najmniej mi się kiedyś podobało, kiedy M. Zembaty uparł się żeby samemu swoje tłumaczenia zaśpiewać.
      Muszę posłuchać koncertu L. Szafran jeszcze raz.
      I Ty posłuchaj, jeśli zechcesz i znajdziesz chwilkę. smile
