[00:00.0] The letters By Leonard Cohen
[00:13.0] You never liked to get
[00:20.0] The letters that I sent
[00:26.0] But now you've got the gist
[00:32.0] Of what my letters meant
[00:40.0] Yor're reading them again
[00:46.0] The ones you didn't burn
[00:53.0] You press them to your lips
[00:58.0] My pages of concern
[01:07.0] I said there'd been a flood
[01:12.0] I said there's nothing left
[01:20.0] I hoped that you would come
[01:27.0] I gave you my address
[01:33.0] Your story was so long
[01:40.0] The plot was so intense
[01:47.0] It took you years to cross
[01:52.0] The lines of self-defense
[02:00.0] The wounded forms appear
[02:06.0] The loss,the full extent
[02:14.0] And simple kindness here
[02:19.0] The solitude of strength
[02:27.0] I said there'd been a flood
[02:34.0] I said there's nothing left
[02:40.0] I hoped that you would come
[02:47.0] I gave you my address
[02:55.0] Your walk into my room
[03:03.0] You stand there at my desk
[03:10.0] Begin your letter to
[03:15.0] The one who's coming next
[03:23.0] Begin your letter to
[03:35.0] The one who's coming next
