melodia

• A Thousand Kisses Deep
  Leonard Cohen
  
  The ponies run, the girls are young,
  The odds are there to beat.
  You win a while, and then it's done
  Your little winning streak.
  And summoned now to deal
  With your invincible defeat,
  You live your life as if it's real,
  A Thousand Kisses Deep.
  
  I'm turning tricks, I'm getting fixed,
  I'm back on Boogie Street.
  You lose your grip, and then you slip
  Into the Masterpiece.
  And maybe I had miles to drive,
  And promises to keep:
  You ditch it all to stay alive,
  A Thousand Kisses Deep.
  
  And sometimes when the night is slow,
  The wretched and the meek,
  We gather up our hearts and go,
  A Thousand Kisses Deep.
  
  Confined to sex, we pressed against
  The limits of the sea:
  I saw there were no oceans left
  For scavengers like me.
  I made it to the forward deck.
  I blessed our remnant fleet
  And then consented to be wrecked,
  A Thousand Kisses Deep.
  
  I'm turning tricks, I'm getting fixed,
  I'm back on Boogie Street.
  I guess they won't exchange the gifts
  That you were meant to keep.
  And quiet is the thought of you,
  The file on you complete,
  Except what we forgot to do,
  A Thousand Kisses Deep.
  
  And sometimes when the night is slow,
  The wretched and the meek,
  We gather up our hearts and go,
  A Thousand Kisses Deep.
  
  The ponies run, the girls are young,
  The odds are there to beat...
  
  You win a while, and then it's done
  Your little winning streak.
  And summoned now to deal
  With your invincible defeat,
  You live your life as if it's real
  A Thousand Kisses Deep.
