Sisters Of Mercy - Dion

作曲：Leonard Cohen

Oh the sisters of mercy

they are not departed or gone

They were waiting for me

when I thought that I just can't go on

And they brought me their comfort and later

they brought me this song

Oh I hope you run into them

you who've been travelling so long

Yes you who must leave everything

Well they lay down beside me

I made my confession to them

They touched both my eyes

and I touched the dew on their hem

If your life is a leaf

that the seasons tear off and condemn

they will bind you with love

that is graceful and green as a stem

Yes you who must leave everything

that you cannot control

I hope you run into them soon

It begins with your family

but soon it comes around to your soul

Well I've been where you're hanging

I think I can see how you're pinned

When you're not feeling holy

your loneliness says that you've sinned

When I left they were sleeping

I hope you run into them soon

Don't turn on the lights

you can read their address by the moon

And you won't make me jealous

if I hear that they sweetened your night

We weren't lovers like that

and besides it would still be all right
