When it all went down
And the pain came through
I get it now
I was there for you
Don't ask me how
I know it's true
I get it now
I was there for you
I make my plans
Like I always do
But when I look back
I was there for you
I walk the streets
Like I used to do
And I freeze with fear
But I'm there for you
I see my life
In full review
It was never me
It was always you
You sent me here
You sent me there
Breaking things
I can't repair
Making objects
Out of thoughts
Making more
By thinking not
Eating food
And drinking wine
A body that
I thought was mine
Dressed as Arab
Dressed as Jew
O mask of iron
I was there for you
Moods of glory
Moods so foul
The world comes through
A bloody towel
And death is old
But it's always new
I freeze with fear
And I'm there for you
I see it clear
I always knew
It was never me
I was there for you
I was there for you
My darling one
And by your law
It all was done

  • the boogie man under the bed? I'm sure "he" was there for a lot of people,,,

    great vid, perfect photos..

  • Sadie...consider "Dance me to the End of Love" by Cohen

  • @glossy104 Lenny is Lenny Bruce--always. This is Leonard. I think I'll have a drink and toast all the wonderful, brilliant, wounded Jew-boys of my youth. Bobbie Zimmerman, too. I loved them all. Thank G-d for Jon Stewart, now my favorite Jew-boy. L'chaim!

  • Great video for masterpiece song. Svaka čast.

  • Leonard's the best!!

  • Superbeeeee....

  • @TheEndKing try 'One of Us Cannot Be Wrong', that might be the one you mean.

  • Dammit..I'm looking for this hilarious song by Leonard. He's singing to some girl, about how he went around talking to wisemen and saints and other people about her, and all this shit happened...oh well.

  • Congratulations for your video

  • Huge Lenny fan - never heard this one, Thank You, it's priceless.
