Leonard Cohen Memories Lyrics

Memories Lyrics

Frankie Lane, he was singing Jezebel 
I pinned an Iron Cross to my lapel 
I walked up to the tallest and the blondest girl 
I said, Look, you don't know me now but very soon you will 
So won't you let me see 
I said "won't you let me see" 
I said "won't you let me see 
Your naked body?" 
Just dance me to the dark side of the gym 
Chances are I'll let you do most anything 
I know you're hungry, I can hear it in your voice 
And there are many parts of me to touch, you have your choice 
Ah but no you cannot see 
She said "no you cannot see" 
She said "no you cannot see 
My naked body" 

So We're dancing close, the band is playing Stardust 
Balloons and paper streamers floating down on us 
She says, You've got a minute left to fall in love 
In solemn moments such as this I have put my trust 
And all my faith to see 
I said all my faith to see 
I said all my faith to see 
Her naked body
