Would you take someone serious and date them if they didn’t like Leonard Cohen and his music? ( Archived) (80)

Would you take someone serious and date them if they didn’t like Leonard Cohen and his music?

There is no God in Heaven and there is no Hell below
So says the great professor of all there is to know
But I've had the invitation that a sinner can't refuse
And it's almost like salvation, it's almost like the blues

Almost like the blues



Will you marry me?



Democracy is coming to the USA



It's coming through a hole in the air
From those nights in Tiananmen Square
It's coming from the feel
That this ain't exactly real
Or it's real, but it ain't exactly there
From the wars against disorder
From the sirens night and day
From the fires of the homeless
From the ashes of the gay
Democracy is coming to the USA


It's coming through a crack in the wall
On a visionary flood of alcohol
From the staggering account
Of the Sermon on the Mount
Which I don't pretend to understand at all
It's coming from the silence
On the dock of the bay,
From the brave, the bold, the battered
Heart of Chevrolet
Democracy is coming to the USA
