Everybody knows
That I love your work, Mr Cohen
Everybody knows that I really do
Everybody knows that it was
So long ago when I was meeting you
First time and that I drowned
Everybody knows that I'm yours now
From this time I was listening your songs
In a scout camp with the Polish words yet
And that I was in love
With the boy who knew you too so well
And now you are still with me
As you were through all these years
When I was waiting
For a miracle to come
When I was waiting for my love
As everybody knows
And during my trips through
You were always the best poet too
To my heart and soul I found
So right now I'm not sure I don't know you
More than my self
I'm this woman
With the lines in my face
And everybody knows
Who made me the way I am
Everybody knows
This invisible influence
Flowing from your songs to my own
Everybody knows
So, I don't have the choice
I need to write to thank you because
I'm a winterlady now,
A woman trippant so far
I'm the one who loves
All because of you
Mr Golden Voice
As everybody knows
So, thank you Mr Cohen
