Dance me to your beauty with a burning violin
Dance me through the panic 'til I'm gathered safely in
Lift me like an olive branch and be my homeward dove
Dance me to the end of love
Dance me to the end of love
~ Leonard Cohen
reminded by your picture I just watched Leonard performing the song on youtube it comes from a Later with Jools Holland show a great version, Leonard at his huskiest and the sweeping violins. I'm thinking there was a breeze swaying your flowers, very effective...
Where , where , where is my Gypsy wife to night ?
I`ve heard all the wild reports , they can`t be right
But whose head is this she`s dancing with on the threshing floor
whose darkness deepens in her arms a little more
I`ve heard all the wild reports , they can`t be right
But whose head is this she`s dancing with on the threshing floor
whose darkness deepens in her arms a little more
I'll try to say a little more:
Love went on an on
Until it reached an open door
Then love itself was gone
