Leonard Cohen – You know who I am

I cannot follow you, my love,
You cannot follow me.
I am the distance you put between
All of the moments that we will be.

You know who i am,
You've stared at the sun,
Well i am the one who loves
Changing from nothing to one.

Sometimes i need you naked,
Sometimes i need you wild,
I need you to carry my children in
And i need you to kill a child.

You know who i am...

If you should ever track me down
I will surrender there
And i will leave with you one broken man
Whom i will teach you to repair.

You know who i am...

I cannot follow you, my love,
You cannot follow me.
I am the distance you put between
All of the moments that we will be.

You know who i am...
