Paroles de la chanson To a Teacher par Léonard Cohen
Hurt once and for all into silence
A long pain ending without a song to prove it
Who could stand beside you so close to Eden
When you glinted in every eye the held-high razor
Shivering every ram and son?
Now, silent looney-bin
Where the shadows live in the rafters like day-weary bats
Until the turning mind, a radar signal
Lures them to exaggerate mountain-size on the white stone wall
Your tiny limp
How can I leave you in such a house?
A long pain ending without a song to prove it
Who could stand beside you so close to Eden
When you glinted in every eye the held-high razor
Shivering every ram and son?
Now, silent looney-bin
Where the shadows live in the rafters like day-weary bats
Until the turning mind, a radar signal
Lures them to exaggerate mountain-size on the white stone wall
Your tiny limp
How can I leave you in such a house?
Are there no more saints and wizards
To praise their ways with pupils
No more evil to stun with the slap of a wet red tongue?
Did you confuse the Messiah in a mirror
And rest because he had finally come?
Let me cry help beside you, teacher
I have entered under this dark roof
As fearlessly as an honoured son enters his father's house
To praise their ways with pupils
No more evil to stun with the slap of a wet red tongue?
Did you confuse the Messiah in a mirror
And rest because he had finally come?
Let me cry help beside you, teacher
I have entered under this dark roof
As fearlessly as an honoured son enters his father's house
