Famous Blue Raincoat - Leonard Cohen

It's four in the morning, the end of December I'm writing you now just to see if you're better New York is cold, but I like where I'm living There's music on Clinton Street, all through the evening I hear that you're building your little house Deep in the desert You're living for nothing now I hope you're keeping some kind of record Yes and Jane came by with a lock of your hair She said that you gave it to her That night that you planned to go clear Did you ever go clear? The last time we saw you You looked so much older Your famous blue raincoat, was torn at the shoulder You'd been to the station, to meet every train You came home without Lili Marlene And you treated my woman To a flake of your life And when she came back She was nobody's wife Well, I see you There with a rose in your teeth One more thin gypsy thief Well I see, Jane's awake She sends her regards And what can I tell you? My brother, my killer? What can I possibly say? I guess that I miss you I guess I forgive you I'm glad you stood in my way If you ever come by here For Jane or for me While, your enemy is sleeping And his woman is free Yes, and thanks For the trouble you took From her eyes I thought it was there for good So I never tried And Jane came by with a lock of your hair She said that you gave it to her That night that you planned to go clear Did you ever go clear?

I hope no one discovers you Hope no one sees her I hope no one falls in love with you I've got my reasons 'Cause if they knew what I know then I know I wouldn't stand a chance There's no way you would go for a man like me if you had options Even though the world was meant for you I hope you don't get famous 'Cause everyone will love you but won't love you like I do, oh nah Hope you don't get famous Stay home with me Stay home with me I'll always love ya, I'll always Hope you don't get Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous Yeah Baby live your life, just how you are Shining star Hope you never get famous Fly low with the angel I said "fake it 'till you make it" I guess you fake when you make it I told you "stick to the basics" But the empire started from the basement If you tryna fix a glass that's broken You know it might cut ya Never want to see you with another man Truth might eat you if your mama know When they get too close for playing Need your huggin' Because nobody gon' love you like I do Even though the world was meant for you I hope you don't get famous 'Cause everyone would love you but won't love you like the way I do, oh nah Hope you don't get famous Stay home with me Stay home with me I'll always love ya, I'll always Hope you don't get Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous All day long I stand by you Right or wrong I stand by you Keep me strong, oh girl it's true Keep me strong, oh girl it's true Even though the world was meant for you I hope you don't get famous 'Cause everyone will love you but won't love you like I do, oh nah Hope you don't get famous Stay home with me Stay home with me I'll always love ya, I'll always Hope you don't get Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous Hope you don't get famous
