Leonard Cohen – One Of Us Cannot Be Wrong Lyrics

Artist: Leonard Cohen
Song: One Of Us Cannot Be Wrong

I lit a thin green candle
To make you jealous of me
But the room just filled up with mosquitoes
They heard that my body was free

Then I took the dust of a
Long sleepless night
And I put it in your little shoe
Then I confess that I tortured the dress

That you wore for the world to look through
I showed my heart to the doctor
He said Id just have to quit
Then he wrote himself a prescription

And your name was mentioned in it
Then he locked himself in a library shelf
With the details of our honeymoon
And I hear from the nurse that

Hes gotten much worse
And his practice is all in a ruin
I heard of a saint who had loved you
So I studied all night in his school

He taught that the duty of lovers
Is to tarnish the golden rule
And just when I was sure that
His teachings were pure

He drowned himself in the pool
His body is gone
But back here on the lawn
His spirit continues to drool

An eskimo showed me a movie
Hed recently taken of you
The poor man could hardly stop shivering
His lips and his fingers were blue

I suppose that he froze when
The wind took your clothes
And I guess he just never got warm
But you stand there so nice

In your blizzard of ice
O please let me come into the storm
