Since Leonard Cohen passed away, this is the one song I can't get out of my head. This is one of my favourites, especially the Jennifer Warnes version. Ain't No Cure for Love Leonard Cohen I loved you for a long, long time I know this love is real It don't matter how it all went wrong That don't change the way I feel And I can't believe that time is Gonna heal this wound I'm speaking of There ain't no cure, there ain't no cure, there ain't no cure for love I'm aching for you baby I can't pretend I'm not I need to see you naked In your body and your thought I've got you like a habit And I'll never get enough There ain't no cure, there ain't no cure, there ain't no cure for love All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky The holy books are open wide The doctors working day and night But they'll never ever find that cure for love (There ain't no drink, no drug) ah, tell them, angels (There's nothing pure enough to be a cure for love) I see you in the subway and I see you on the bus I see you lying down with me, I see you waking up I see your hand, I see your hair Your bracelets and your brush And I call to you, I call to you But I don't call soft enough There ain't no cure, there ain't no cure, there ain't no cure for love I walked into this empty church, I had no place else to go When the sweetest voice I ever heard whispered to my soul I don't need to be forgiven for loving you so much It's written in the scriptures It's written there in blood And I even heard the angels declare it from above There ain't no cure, there ain't no cure, there ain't no cure for love All the rocket ships are climbing through the sky The holy books are open wide The doctors working day and night But they'll never-ever find that (cure for love), that cure for love (That cure for love) (There ain't no cure for love) (No cure for love, there ain't no cure for love) Songwriters: Leonard Cohen Ain't No Cure for Love lyrics © Sony/ATV Music Publishing LLC
