  • 作曲 : Leonard Cohen
    The rain falls down on last year's man
    That's a Jew's harp on the table
    that's a crayon in his hand
    And the corners of the blueprint
    are ruined since they rolled
    Far past the stems of thumbtacks
    that still throw shadows on the wood
    And the skylight is like skin
    for a drum I'll never mend
    And all the rain falls down amen
    on the works of last year's man
    I met a lady she was playing
    with her soldiers in the dark
    Oh one by one she had to tell them
    that her name was Joan of Arc
    I was in that army yes
    I stayed a little while
    I want to thank you
    Joan of Arc for treating me so well
    And though I wear a uniform
    I was not born to fight
    All these wounded boys
    you lie beside goodnight
    my friends goodnight
    I came upon a wedding
    that old families had contrived
    Bethlehem the bridegroom
    Babylon the bride
    Great Babylon was naked
    oh she stood there trembling for me
    And Bethlehem inflamed us
    both like the shy one at some orgy
    And when we fell together
    all our flesh was like a veil
    That I had to draw aside to see
    the serpent eat it's tail
    Some women wait for Jesus
    and some women wait for Cain
    So I hang upon my altar
    and I hoist my Axe again
    And I take the one who finds me
    back to where it all began
    When Jesus was the honeymoon
    and Cain was just the man
    And we read from pleasant
    Bibles that are bound in blood and skin
    That the wilderness is gathering
    all it's children back again
    The rain falls down on last year's man
    An hour has gone by
    and he has not moved his hand
    But everything will happen
    if he only gives the word
    The lovers will rise up
    and the mountains touch the ground
    But the skylight is like skin
    for a drum I'll never mend
    And all the rain falls down amen
    on the works of last year's man
