Leonard Cohen - A Thousand kisses deep(Spoken poem)Don't matter if the road is longDon't matter if it's steepDon't matter if the moon is goneAnd the darkness is completeDon't matter if we lose our wayIt's written that we'll meetAt least, that's what I heard you sayA thousand kisses deepI loved you when you openedLike a lily to the heatYou see, I'm just another snowmanStanding in the rain and sleetWho loved you with his frozen loveHis second hand physiqueWith all he is and all he wasA thousand kisses deepI know you had to lie to meI know you had to cheatYou learned it on your father's kneeAnd at your mother's feetBut did you have to fight your wayAcross the burning streetWhen all our vital interests layA thousand kisses deepI'm turning tricksI'm getting fixedI'm back on boogie streetI'd like to quit the businessBut I'm in it, so to speakThe thought of you is peacefulAnd the file on you completeExcept what I forgot to doA thousand kisses deepDon't matter if you're rich and strongDon't matter if you're weakDon't matter if you write a songThe nightingales repeatDon't matter if it's nine to fiveOr timeless and uniqueYou ditch your life to stay aliveA thousand kisses deepThe ponies runThe girls are youngThe odds are there to beatYou win a while, and then it's doneYour little winning streakAnd summon now to deal with your invincible defeatYou live your life as if it's realA thousand kisses deepI hear their voices in the wineThat sometimes did me seekThe band is playing Auld Lang SyneBut the heart will not retreatThere's no forsaking what you loveNo existential leapAs witnessed here in time and bloodA thousand kisses deep

Yeah, first time I've seen him. I was blown away, one of the best live shows I've ever shown. What a voice....

I saw Leonard Cohen last night at O2 London too. Wasn't it absolutely amazing. Lots of tears and laughter. Would love to see him perform again at the Albert Hall next week. I saw him at the Albert Hall in the early 70s but can't quite remember the date.

May be he's saying that this poem is a "prick" in the sense of "make a small hole into, as with a needle or a thorn", "to cause a sharp emotional pain" or things like that. I say this because he has various videos of Cohen as favorites.

I don't know, some people has transcribe it as "that sometimes did me seek", "that sometimes did we seek", "who sometimes did me seek", "who sometimes did we seek". I'm not an english native speaker, so I'm not sure. Should I change it?
JacobtheGreat111 (December 31, 1969 at 6:59 pm)
i think the second line in the last paragraph of the information is wrong, isn't it "who sometimes did me seek"

god this is good, i forgot just how moving it is.and if Cohen is a prick, then i hope i can become one hundredth as much of a prick as he is
