(Written By Cohen, Performed In "Night Magic")
(Judy) Once I was happy to
Roam through the gold and blue
Now something haunts me
I know it's real
Someone returns
The desire I feel
(Angels) We could have passed him by
(Judy) Should have passed him by
So many others cry
(Angels) One more human cry
(Judy) So many others
Reaching for
A thread through the night
Or one lover more
He has a dream
(Angels) It's his dream
(Judy) I dream it too
(Angels) It's not your dream
(Judy) He dreams of the promise
We swore we would come through
(Angels) The promise is not yours alone to honor
(Judy) But we said we'd...
(Angels) This is not our part
(Judy) Open his heart
(Angels) Now it is open
(Judy) No, now it must start
(Michael) You promised me whatever was in my heart
(Angels) We promised him whatever was in his heart
(Michael) You swore that I could speak from the heart
(Angels) Yes, we said he'd speak from his heart
(Michael) Now I have chosen
And you must obey
(Judy) I will obey
(Michael) It's my heart that commands
And it must have it's way
I want you
I need you
I can't live without you
Anymore
(Judy) Your heart commands me
And I will obey you
I need you
I can't live without you
Anymore
(Judy & Angels) We promised him whatever was
In his heart
(Michael) You promised me whatever was
In my heart
(Judy & Angels) We said that he could speak
From the heart
(Michael) You swore that I could speak
From the heart
(Judy) And now he has chosen
And now I must choose
Tho' garlands of planets
And starlight I lose
(Angels) Now you must choose
Starlight, starlight
You're gonna lose him
(Judy & Michael) I want you, I need you
I can't live without you
(Everyone) I want you, I need you
I can't live without you
Anymore
Leonard Norman Eliezer Cohen (Montreal, September 21, 1934 – Los Angeles, November 7, 2016) was a Canadian singer-songwriter, poet, novelist, and composer of Jewish origin. Considered one of the most influential singer-songwriters of the 20th century, Cohen achieved international fame for his musical style characterized by melancholic melodies and poetic lyrics that explored themes such as religion, love, loss, and spirituality. His artistic career spanned over five decades, during which he released 14 studio albums, selling millions of copies worldwide. Cohen began his career as a poet, publishing several volumes of verse before turning to music in the 1960s. His debut album, *Songs of Leonard Cohen*, was released in 1967 and included classics such as "Suzanne" and "So Long, Marianne". Throughout the 1970s and 1980s, he explored new musical genres, collaborating with artists like John Cale, and his albums *New Skin for the Old Ceremony* (1974) and *Various Positions* (1984) achieved great success. In 2001, he released the album *Ten New Songs*, which marked a return to a more traditional musical form. Besides music, Cohen was also a prolific writer of novels, essays, and poetry. His literary work has been widely recognized and awarded. In 2016, shortly before his death, he released his final album *You Want It Darker*.
