The Walls

(Written By Cohen, Performed In "Night Magic")

(Michael) It's late, it's very late
How did it get so late?

(Judy) What was it we were thinking of?

(Michael & Judy) We didn't want this,
did we?

(Judy) There must be some mistake

(Michael) What was it I forgot to tell you?

(Judy) What was it I forgot?

There was a promise here
A child who knew me
A bitter bedtime story

(Michael & Judy) Another house of some forgotten family
It's very late
There must be some mistake
And now this place
for none

(Michael) There was a woman here
A woman who knew me
A table set before me

(Michael & Judy) It is the walls
it is the victory of the walls
It is the room
it is the distance of the room

(Michael) Without her...

(Judy) Without you.
