Leonard Cohen "Heart With No Companion" Berlin 2008

Berlin Concert 4th October 2008
O2 World

Sorry the video is not good quality, but maybe all right. The sound is not too bad. I was way back in block 205 in the O2 Arena, so it was difficult to get a good video.
Anyway it was a great concert, very enjoyable. At this stage of his world tour this man just does not give up. He put on a great performance.

Heart With No Companion
From Various Positions (1984)

I greet you from the other side
Of sorrow and despair
With a love so vast and shattered
It will reach you everywhere

And I sing this for the captain
Whose ship has not been built
For the mother in confusion
Her cradle still unfilled

For the heart with no companion
For the soul without a king
For the prima ballerina
Who cannot dance to anything

Through the days of shame that are coming
Through the nights of wild distress
Tho' your promise count for nothing
You must keep it nonetheless

You must keep it for the captain
Whose ship has not been built
For the mother in confusion
Her cradle still unfilled

For the heart with no companion ...

I greet you from the other side ...
