... a sip of wine ... and then it's time to go ... I've tidied up the kitchenette ... I'm what I am, and what I am is back on boogie street ... and, oh my love, I still recall the pleasures that we knew ... the rivers and the waterfall wherein I bathed with you ... bewildered by your beauty there, I kneeled to dry your feet.
By such instructions, you prepared a man for boogie street ...
I never thought we'd need ...
You kiss my lips, and then it's done ...
I'm back on boogie street.
Boogie Street, Leonard Cohen
Last night I was back on boogie street ... as I so often am these days ...
