Leonard Cohen - Iodine

I needed you, I knew I was in danger

Of losing what I used to think was mine

You let me love you till I was a failure

You let me love you till I was a failure

Your beauty on my bruise like iodine



I asked you if a man could be forgiven

And though I failed at love, was this a crime?

You said, “Don't worry, don't worry, darling”

You said, “Don't worry, don't you worry, darling”

There are many ways a man can serve his time



You covered up that place I could not master

It wasn't dark enough to shut my eyes

So I was with you, o sweet compassion

Yes, I was with you, o sweet compassion

Compassion with the sting of iodine



Your saintly kisses reeked of iodine

Your fragrance with a fume of iodine

And pity in the room like iodine



Your sister fingers burned like iodine

And all my wanton lust was iodine

My masquerade of trust was iodine

And everywhere the flare of iodine
