WHEN YOU SANG JOAN OF ARC is about how I feel when I hear the CD of Den singin' Leonard Cohen's Joan of Arc when he was in his twenties...sad for what we didn't have...happy, for what we do have now...it's a poem/lyrics...there's a song for it somewhere inside of us....

WHEN YOU SANG JOAN OF ARC

When you're singin' Joan of Arc,
I simply gotta cry...
When your voice goes up like angels -
Makes me want to fly...
And you were young and full of life
You sang with feelings so:
It makes me cry to feel them now -
Just knowin' what I know...

That all our lives we should have been -
Should not have been apart...
That all that time we were of One:
One Way of Life - One Heart...
And that's all that I ever hear
When you sing Joan of Arc...
That's always what I hear, my dear,
When you sing Joan of Arc....

I sang her sad song, too, you know -
I sang it all those years...
And that is why I'm mourning now -
Tho smiling though my tears...
For you are all I ever knew
in every single song...
You're all I want singin' beside me
For this whole life long....
