Hungry Like the Wolf (Acoustic Version) - The Cohen Brothers

And I'm hungry like the wolf Dark in the city, night is a wire Steam in the subway, earth is a fire Woman, you want me, give me a sign And catch my breathing even closer behind In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt, I'm after you Smell like I sound, I'm lost in a crowd And I'm hungry like the wolf Straddle the line in discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt, I'm after you Mouth is alive with juices like wine And I'm hungry like the wolf Stalked in the forest, too close to hide I'll be upon you by the moonlight side High blood drumming on your skin, it's so tight You feel my heat, I'm just a moment behind In touch with the ground I'm on the hunt, I'm after you Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found And I'm hungry like the wolf Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme I howl and I whine, I'm after you Mouth is alive, all running inside And I'm hungry like the wolf Hungry like the wolf Hungry like the wolf Hungry like the wolf Burning the ground, I break from the crowd I'm on the hunt, I'm after you I smell like I sound, I'm lost and I'm found And I'm hungry like the wolf Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme I'm on the hunt, I'm after you Mouth is alive with juices like wine And I'm hungry like the wolf Burning the ground, I break from the crowd I'm on the hunt, I'm after you Scent and a sound, I'm lost and I'm found And I'm hungry like the wolf Strut on a line, it's discord and rhyme I howl and I whine, I'm after you Mouth is alive, all running inside And I'm hungry like the wolf Turn on the line, discord and rhyme I howl and I whine, I'm after you Mouth is alive And I'm...

I wake up ah mornin' time Face on it's time to shine Going after what is mine I won't settle for no less I freshen my wings and I Prepare myself to fly I step out into the sky And I ascend Freedom is concept worth defining Each person has their own purpose If I compare myself to anyone I'm disrespecting me We all have our timing So when the shots fire it's time to go I won't be looking for nobody no 'Cause this is my time, to shine My time to shine Going after what is mine Watch me elevate, higher and higher And when the winds get rough And the flying gets tough I will hold my head up high, and soar like the eagle Head home when work is done Kick off my shoes and run Just want to feel the blood Flowing through my veins I freshen my face and I Nourish my insides I step out into free time And I pretend It's my life, it's my life, it's my ohhh Freedom is concept worth defining Each person has their own purpose If I compare myself to anyone I'm disrespecting me We all have our timing So when the shots fire it's time to go I won't be looking for nobody no 'Cause this is my time, to shine My time to shine Going after what is mine Watch me elevate, higher and higher And when the winds get rough And the flying gets tough I will hold my head up high, and soar like the eagle Don't let me sleep with unfinished business for the day My words to keep, let my actions confirm what I say And if I must flyyy away, let me flyyy leaving a better way (A better way) Don't let me sleep with unfinished business for the day My words to keep, let my actions confirm what I say And if I must die today, let me die leaving a better day (A better day) My time to shine Going after what is mine Watch me elevate, higher and higher And when the winds get rough And the flying gets tough I will hold my head up high, and soar like the eagle My time to shine Going after what is mine Watch me elevate, higher and higher And when the winds get rough And the flying gets tough I will hold my head up high, and soar like the eagle And soar, like the eagle And soar, like the eagle And soar, like the eagle And soar, like the eagle

Oh, it could be exciting Excuse for a change if we don't work the way We were Oh, but nothing seems inviting Except the image of your open arms calling back To me I'll take you back Yeah, I know it seems surprising when there's lipstick still on the glass And the full moon rising, but it's me who makes myself mad Ooh, I'll take you Oh, my body does deceive me Just as did yours, though we're fighting different wars In our ways Oh, there's no pleasure in resisting So go ahead and kiss me I'll take you back Yeah, I know it seems surprising when there's lipstick still on the glass And the full moon rising, but it's me who makes myself mad Ooh, I'll take you Once more, once more, once more Once more, once more, once more Once more You know nothing would've needed deciding Had you just simply asked But the full moon rising, and it's me I'll take you back Yeah, I know it seems surprising when there's lipstick still on the glass And the full moon rising, but it's me who makes myself mad Ooh, I'll take you

Field Commander Cohen He was our most important spy Wounded in the line of duty Parachuting acid into diplomatic cocktail parties Urging Fidel Castro to abandon fields and castles Leave it all and like a man Come back to nothing special Such as waiting rooms and ticket lines Silver bullet suicides and messianic ocean tides And racial roller coaster rides And other forms of boredom, advertised as poetry I know you need your sleep now I know your life's been hard But many men are falling Where you promised to stand guard I never asked but I heard You cast your lot along with the poor But then I overheard your prayer That you be this and nothing more Than just some grateful faithful woman's Favorite singing millionaire The patron Saint of Envy and the grocer of despair Working for the Yankee dollar I know you need your sleep now I know your life's been hard But many men are falling Where you promised to stand guard Ah, lover come and lie with me If my lover is who you are And be your sweetest self awhile Until I ask for more, my child Then let the other selves be one, yeah Let them manifest and come 'Til every taste is on the tongue 'Til love is pierced and love is hung And every kind of freedom done Then, oh, my love, oh, my love Oh, my love, oh, my love Oh, my love, oh, my love Oh, my love

אבא, כמה אהבה יש לי אליך אתה לא יודע ואם לא הראיתי מספיק קח עוד שיר שיוכל להסביר מצטער שלא הבנתי את הלב שלך מצטער שלא מצאתי את המילים איתך כי הרי מה שקיבלתי כל זה בזכותך תן לי את היד מבטיח, לא לעזוב אותך אבא אין פה מושלם אבל בשבילי אתה כל העולם גם אם יבואו שנים ללא מילים אני אבין אותך אני הבן שלך קח את הכול זה בכלל שלך תודה על הכול אני אוהב אותך ואף פעם לא כעסתי על הלב שלך אל תדאג כי זו הדרך שכתובה לך והרי מה שנתתי כל זה בשבילך גם אם לא תהיה איתי פה אני תמיד איתך

על כביש פתוח כמעט כמו הרוח אין לי שום כיוון אני לא בטוח איך אפשר לנוח איך מוצאים איזון ויש לי אלף חלומות עוד להגשים איתך תבואי לפה אחרי פרידות אני תמיד בתהיות על מי שלא הצלחתי להיות בשבילך אני נופל קם והולך עם הדרך מסתבך מה קורה לי בגללך איך איך אני אמור להסתדר כשתחבקי אחד אחר ולא נספיק עוד לדבר ואין לי כוח שיגעו לי את המוח מה צריך להיות כולם הפכו להיות פרופסורים לאהבות ובעיות ויש לי קטע כמו ילד אני שם שירים ומדמיין את כל הסיטואציות שטעינו מאמי דרמות שעשינו מאמי לב שבור זה ממכר בשבילך אני נופל קם והולך עם הדרך מסתבך מה קורה לי בגללך איך איך אני אמור להסתדר כשתחבקי אחד אחר ולא נספיק עוד לדבר
