This song is so rich and powerful. Lovely poetry from the great Canadian bard. This is the best of Ten New Songs, for certain.

I read on The Leonard Cohen Files that he had actually rewritten a poem by somebody else (not Lorca, who he rewrote for Take This Waltz). There was even a breakdown page by page of how over a year or so he'd transformed the original poem into this wonderful, mystical song.

I, too, released many tears to this song - driving, listening to its words and music - perhaps more than a hundred times. Beautiful writing, composition, and performance. Yes, perfect - or close to it.

What can you say a perfect poem and a perfect song. And the two voices singing together do they have no mercy the tears keep flowing.
