I had to go crazy to love you Had to let everything fall Had to be people I hated Had to be no one at all I’m tired of choosing desire I've been saved by a blessed fatigue The gates of commitment unwired And nobody trying to leave Sometimes I'd head for the highway I'm old and the mirrors don't lie But crazy has places to hide in That are deeper than any goodbye

@marjanmarianne congratulations, is english your first language?

@MrSoreto I think it might refer to when he has been ill from his manic depression periods and trying to get well. the tower could well be a hospital or his safeplace at the monastry..The whole song is about that, I would think. The sentence is : Had to do time in the tower begging MY crazy to quit

Amazing!! This is perfect Leonard! I find myself laughing while another tear rolls down my cheek.

why just every Canadian, I think Leonard Cohen should be given out free to the " So Called " " Leaders of the World " with a hope , that maybe someday they would be learning just " Something " ..about " LIFE, LOVE and POETRY "...hoping it´s not all too late.
ps: I´m from Denmark..going to buy it anyway :))

@MrSoreto i think so. :)
