Paper Thin Hotel — текст песни (The Fatima Mansions)

(Music--Leonard Cohen/Phil Spector; Lyrics--Leonard Cohen) Sony Music Publishing/Back to Mono Music

The walls of this hotel are paper thin
Last night I heard you making love to him
The struggles mouth to mouth and limb to limb
The grunt of unity as he came in

CHORUS:
I stood there with my ear against the wall
I was not seized by jealusy at all
In fact, a burden lifted from my soul
I heard that love was out of my control
A heavy burden lifted from my soul
I heard that love was out of my control

I listened to your kisses at the door
I never heard a world so clear before
You ran your bath and you began to sing
I felt so good I couldn`t feel a thing--CHORUS

And I can`t wait to tell you to your face
And I can`t wait for you to take my place
You are the naked angel in my heart
You are the woman with her legs apart
It`s written on the walls of this hotel
You go to heaven once you`ve been to hell
A heavy burden lifted from my soul
when I learned that love was out of my control

I want to seranade you with a song my mother taught me:
"SANTA LUCIA!! SANTA LUCIA!!"
