Karaoké 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
