"SHOW ME THE PLACE" by Leonard Cohen


I know you know I love this man.  Words fail me, spirits grow joyous and uninterested in expressing how much I do.  Here are the lyrics to his newest song.  Here is the joy that I'll carry for the rest of the day.

Listen to the song by clicking on the title below.  Read these words.  Call your lover, and tell them you love them.


Show me the Place 


Show me the place, where you want your slave to go
Show me the place, I've forgotten I don't know
Show me the place where my head is bend and low
Show me the place, where you want your slave to go

Show me the place, help me roll away the stone
Show me the place, I can't move this thing alone
Show me the place where the word became a man
Show me the place where the suffering began

The troubles came I saved what I could save
A shred of light, a particle away
But there were chains so I hastened to the hay
There were chains, so I loved you
Like a slave

Show me the place, where you want your slave to go
Show me the place, I've forgotten I don't know
Show me the place where my head is bend and low
Show me the place, where you want your slave to go

The troubles came I saved what I could save
A shred of light, a particle away
But there were chains so I hastened to the hay
There were chains so I loved you like a slave

Show me the place
Show me the place
Show me the place

Show me the place, help me roll away the stone
Show me the place, I can't move this thing alone
Show me the place where the word became a man
Show me the place where the suffering began

  1. We all are WARRIORS but only few STRONGLY stand... When DEVIL PLAYS the “MUSIC OF LOVE” WARRIORS never get entangled in them, bcoz they know, IT’S is a TRAP E.g. CHAKRAVYUH…..ARJUN (MAHABHARATA’S Character) knew how to come out of it! To WIN THE WAR, SACRIFICE is a must! bcoz Servants of God are given more TRIALS than other, NOT to weaken us but for God to see how much do we truly believe in him. Are we really! Worth the BLESSINGS what we are asking for! Like LORD KRISHNA says in MAHABHARATA “Jung mein jeet jaisa roop mein mile woh sasthi hoti hai!!!!
    Thought of sharing 2 QUOTES:
    At the Touch of Love, everyone becomes a POET.
    Only 2 things are necessary to keep a woman happy...
    First, let her think she's having her own way. And second, let her have it....
