Show Me The Place Lyrics

by Leonard Cohen

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 for my head is bending low
Show me the place, where you want your slave to go

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e64579-leonard_cohen~show_me_the_place_lyrics.html ]
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 behave
There were chains, lots of chains
Like a spade

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, for my head is bending 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 behave
There were chains so I loved you like a slave

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
