Lyrics:
Steer your way past the ruins of the altar and the mall
Steer your way through the fables of creation and the fall
Steer your way past the palaces that rise above the rot
Year by year, month by month, day by day
Thought by thought
Steer your heart past the truth that you believed in yesterday
Such as fundamental goodness and the wisdom of the way
Steer your heart, precious heart, past the women whom you bought
Year by year, month by month, day by day
Thought by thought
Steer your way through the pain that is far more real than you
That smashed the cosmic model, that blinded every view
And please don't make me go there, though there be a God or not
Year by year, month by month, day by day
Thought by thought
They whisper still, the ancient stones
The blunted mountains weep
As he died to make men holy
Let us die to make things cheap
And say the mea culpa, which you probably forgot
Year by year, month by month, day by day
Thought by thought
Steer your way, o my heart, though I have no right to ask
To the one who was never, never equal to the task
Who knows he's been convicted, who knows he will be shot
Year by year, month by month, day by day
Thought by thought
They whisper still, the injured stones
The blunted mountains weep
As he died to make men holy
Let us die to make things cheap
And say your mea culpa, which you gradually forgot
Year by year, month by month, day by day
Thought by thought
I met Leonard Cohen in 1996 at the Naam Restaurant in Vancouver. He sat with me to have tea. He was delightful. He introduced himself as "Leonard Cohens best friend." lol Very poetic. The reason he said he sat with me was because he said I looked like someone who would say interesting things. I said "Perhaps." He said "See." lol I was young and audacious. lol Or at least less vulnerable from ripening age.These days I would just say "Thank-you. He gave me his local address to come and visit him at home... and I lost the address. It was not meant to be. But he was charming and enigmatic... and simply personable and reflective. Prior to this I always listened to him in an art studio apartment in Gastown...and around that time in that era... he was the ambient muse of sound at many local art parties. Such a marvel of man and musician. Deeply honest and vulnerable.
Nice posting. You lost his address. In some way, it was meant for you to lose it and to hold this brief meeting at the crossroads to your heart.
To much lol
lol
Pedophile? I also met him - he was not the persona he presented to the world.
Thomas Carlyle Pedophile? I failed to notice where the OP mentions she was a little girl when having the experience. Maybe you can shine a light on where or how you came to throwing out that label?
82 and producing music like this? I´m speechless.
well, he is not producer.
English may not be your mother tongue but producing, in the context I wrote in the comment box, means
' Making music'
anyway, I'm sure he has as much input in the sound he makes as any other Artist!
I know. But production in music is everything. It defines the sound, so producer is having much credit for that. Especially for the singer-songwriter which is a poet first before anything else.
What does age have do with it?
If his age is of any consequence, it's only in terms of experience! :)
"As He died to make men holy, let us die to make things cheap."
A lament of our times. His truth is marching on.
@Michael Freed HalleluYAH. How to give advice to somebody you never met? He knew i would come, but he was not sure he would see me. Thus he packed all his advice into songs that i would be able to pick up anywhere on the globe. 1917 Land Of YIsraEL restored 1967 Zion restored 2017 kingdom restored. ZechariYAH 12:7 יְהֹוָה also shall save the tents of Judah first, that the glory of the house of David ( twitter.com/ya_hshua ) and the glory of the inhabitants of Jerusalem do not magnify themselves against Judah.... --->>> some of the songs were prophecy. Happens to the Heart released when "J" married the greek. "Go tell the young messiah what happens to the heart" But do not take my word for it. "Leonard Cohen Nevermind" Openbaring 22:21 Die Genade van onse ewige Vader immanuEL ( wat as dfit vertaal word beteken, ELoheem met ons) Die Gesalfde Prins Van Vrede sy met julle almal! Amen.
@@YIsrael-vt8qp thank you as your message has finally been received from this fellow messenger seeking. GBU as we hope to help while awaiting
R.I.P.You beautiful shining soul and thankyou for decades of brilliant music and poetry... That's some way to say goodbye.

Well said
Are you a good person? Not by your own standards, but by God’s, your Creator and Judge. No one is. Repent, confess your sins to God and believe in Christ. Only then will you be justified, at peace with God, free from hell, and you'll live for His glory: czcams.com/video/pYZw0dfLmLk/video.html
there is a strange, beautiful, timeless little room in my soul to which leonard cohen alone has a key *)#
Theres a blue bird in my hart that wants to be free but I won't let him.
There is a crack in the wall, but that is how the light gets in.
And then the bird wants out. But, who has a key?
Absolutely.
No Mask you feel Leonard
A Nobel would trivialize this colossus. Steer your Way, Leonard. Thanks for being around.
Cohen and Dylan had mutual respect for each other.
i agree
That Violin though
Yeah, David Davidson is the player.
My father died in Fall 2020 during the pandemic (not covid related) and I found a translation of the lyrics of this song. He probably wanted to know the exact meaning.
May he rest in peace!
He was a wonderful person, I am honoured to have had in my life especially as a father
What was his native language?
@@assmane999 german, he did not need english that much.
I am so sad and hoped 2 meet Leonard Cohen be4 his passed away. I am thankful 4 the connection and send best wish 2 the family in this hard times. Leonard , you made me, i always have you in my heart now. Rest in best was. Bless and pray from Maria Ganekind your real daughter I love you .
wait...what?
I think this might be a matter for the great poet's biographers and possibly inheritance lawyers
Ni he is my real father im adopted born 19670626. bless Rip Leonard Cohen
Maria G I had a very vivid dream I met him. I don't know if I did. But I sure feel I pierced the vale
Heaven will never be dead on a Saturday night ever again. RIP. Mr. Cohen, and thank you for the words and music that I listened to as a child and adult. You may not have been mainstream for the masses, but for the ones in the know, you are truly the GREATEST.
Well said. His music and lyrics go to the depths of a persons soul.
An old friend once told me something that gave me great comfort. Something he read. He said Mozart, Beethoven and Chopin never died. They simply became music.
nice
I'm grateful for Cohen's legacy. His time has ended here, but Leonard lives on in our ears and hearts. Year by year, month by month, day by day, thought by thought.
Lady BlackstarDust oh yeah! Thanks!
True
I love that because love is the only engine of survival.
RIP, Our Old Dear Friend. Be seeing you soon. Thank You.
Leonard Cohen is a rare treasure. His words move you to tears, there is a spiritual power coming through his works. He is blessed by God....he is a gift to us.
His best
album ever I love it can't stop playing it
A Jewish ending album, his choice, respect his lifetime lyrics, his choice at the end
His Buddhist training really comes through in these lyrics.
Thank you Leonard Cohen, for not just leaving..but stopping to say goodbye.
Thank you too Adam Cohen, for making this amazing album happen!
Leonard Cohen was and is one of the most impressive musicians.
MAESTRO, love this MASTERPIECE album. The One and ONLY.
Where is your Noble Prize tonight ?
he is moor than noble
Totally agree about the Nobel prize. I love Dylan too - but Leonard will always be the King!
I gave my estranged mom this cd i waited at the store the day it came out and to this day she never ever listened to it. I was trying to speak to her through his songs and his voice.. it was lost on her and I must say it's her loss.. there was so many things I wanted her to know about me.. r,i,p
I think I know the feeling. I wanted to give Ten New Songs to my father but never got around. Now he's past away and probably does not need it but I would have loved for him to hear it. It might have been something of a bridge between us.
I sympathize deeply with you. But not everyone has the ability to have deep emotions. There are people who don’t feel that way. This is not a matter of choice. Their bodies work differently. They just don’t know what it’s like. Just as the blind can’t see the colors either.
My dad succumbed to dementia not too long after this album came out. He loved L.Cohen's music all my life, and was blessed with the opportunity to hear this album "for the first time" every time he listened to it during his last year on earth. In this way, even a passing as tragic as one with complications from dementia was somehow made better by Mr. Cohen's music!
If Bob doesn't want his Nobel give it to St Leo just for this little masterpiece alone..."as he dies to make men holy, let us die to make things cheap " Our whole human race summed up in one line, St Cohen is beyond our time..he ain't ready to go yet our Lord...beyond words!
+ Andrew O'Hara Holy words man, holy words... in my heart he is the nobel price winner
This line alone is worth more than the Nobel prize itself.
It simply transcends the latter.
Leo's glory reaches far beyond that of the nobel prize. Which is just another trivial measure of public acceptance. And in his words "As he dies to make men holy, let us die to make things cheap " says we mustn't make his prophetic voice subservient to a price. My words sounds irrational. But atleast they are spoken out.
day by day
thought by thought
Rest in peace, Leonard...
Gone but not forgotten ever. ...
Greetings from IRELAND we will miss you thanks for letting us ride along.....
your kindness to us.....
Leonard has helped me get through the darkness I have locked myself in for the past two years...I am free now and can highly recommend him for therapy...once the music and the lyrics kick in you soon get over yourself and come out strong !
thanks iam new but will try his music out
''They whisper still, the injured stones,
the blunted mountains weep
As he died to make men holy,
let us die to make things cheap
And say the Mea Culpa which
you’ve probably forgot

Sadness for not only Leonard but also his loyal band of musicians and singers, in particular, Sharon Robinson and the Web sisters. This sound will never be equalled now Leonard has gone to that great Tower Of Song.
The Webb Sisters, pretty as they are, are not long time collaborators as were most of his backup musicians on the Grand Tour...
Oh to have a mind that can not just pull back the curtains but also the fine mesh that confounds our view, and look with clear eyes and a piercing mind upon our little civilisation. Sleep well Leonard.
AMAZING, BEAUTIFUL, INCREDIBLE, MAGNIFICENT. RIP, 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
REST IN PEACE MAESTRO,,,
Leonard carries a flame that always finds the crack in my heart to shine through
You are immortal, I'll always love you. Forever in my heart. RIP genius.
We love you forever my friend Leonard he died this morning Nov. 11 2016 R.I.P moment of silence for this kind hearted, wonderful, smart man
R.I.P Leonard Cohen and thank you for everything.
I've been looking forward to this album since "You want it darker" was announced. Poetry Isn't dead. This Album is proof.
What a great epitaph this album is.
Tutti i giovani DOVREBBERO ascoltare Leonard Cohen, una perfetta sintonia di anima, cervello e voce
Piero Querques
words that make you think, music that makes you mellow - a talent for all seasons , an artist for all time.
Oh, peace be with you, Mr Cohen. You gave us songs which expressed the loneliness and reality of living in a world of disappointment and violence and lived your life expressing the contradictions of being human.

Dziękuję za wszystko Leonardzie , za moją młodość z Tobą za dojrzewanie przy Tobie i za to że byłeś ze mną zawsze ....rok po roku, dzień po dniu ....W myślach i sercu zawsze ...R.I.P.
They must give a Nobel to Cohen as well!!!
I have only recently discovered Leonard and I can't get his music and words out of my head or my heart. When I hear him sing, it goes straight to my heart and overwhelms me. Bless you Mr. Cohen for giving us your heart.
Me too. Has done for years.
Mr Cohen. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
Sad news tonight about Leonard. Will miss you greatly Mr C.
Still so bright his light on July 4 2022. He knew what was coming. Heed his words .

Year by year, month by month, day by day, thought by thought. RIP Leonard, I regret it took your death to 'get' your music; a belated thanks to you.
THE HUMAN... THE VOICE... THE MIND...THE MUSIC...THE life:(
Mr Cohen you meant so much to so many in different ways. Thankyou for your breath to words conceived by a mind that looked inside and yet stayed detached just enough, day by day ..... year by year... Thought by thought
Davidson
One and ONLY! RIP Leonard !
You have given the world a gift, thank you.
Oh, may God bless you, Leon! And do you know; they renamed a street on Hydra Leonard Cohen street ... last year ...
RIP. THE WORLD JUST LOST 1 OF THE GREATESTS POET, ARTIST, A WONDERFUL MAN
SUCH A BRILLIANT MIND IN EVERY. VERY SAD TODAY I AM. I LOVE U MAN 4 EVER AND ALWAYS, U ARE IN MY HEART SPIRIT AND SOUL. MANNY BLESSINGS.
MAY GOD BLESS UR SOUL LEONARD CHOEN. WILL BE DEEPLY MISSED...
The True Noble price for poetry was far more deserving ToGo to COHEN!!
There is no equal to you the fabulous poet
This is the most beautiful song on the album..Close your eyes and listen...God save Leonard!
Leonard, de grootste musicus aller tijden. Dank voor alles wat je ons hebt gegeven.
Every time I listen to this album, and I listen to it often, I cry. Knowing that those songs are His last. And hoping that my souls will meat his - somewhere, sometime
Cohen must win the Nobel only for this: "Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir, I've tried in my way, to be free"
My daughter Samantha loved lenard cohen, she died four years ago aged 38, she died of breast cancer, this was played at her funeral, she loved it so much, it's an amazing track but hurts so much everytime I hear it. Cohen was an amazing musical artist.
Bless you and the pain your heart contains, it is beautiful you can cherish what accompanies such a big wound.
R.I.P. Samantha...
A like isn't enough for this masterpiece
Amazing to read that he did this last album on his death bed with the assistance from his son. All the songs of this album reflect his fascination with death. His complete collections of songs, are reflection of his mind on love and the death of love. Your songs will live centuries past his life.
that violin is beautiful
One of the greatest ever
Cohen's best ever:
3. The Traitor
2. Waiting for the Miracle
1. Steer Your Way
And they _do_ make a sequence.
You Are Loved Leonard And You Will Never Be Forgotten .
One of the most badass songs ever
Rest in Peace, now may you become a cosmic troubadour.
Probably the best song of Leonard Cohen. Probably.
voce.musica.parole. the best
People ask where are our prophets in these our modern times? Where are all those who in biblical times pointed the way for all the rest? They're still here as they always are. They are manifested in the likes of a George Carlin, or a Leonard Cohen. They speak truth to us in a way that cuts thru the random chaos of our day to day. They make sense of the non-sensible.
It may be true that we are all vessels containing darkness. Lord knows there's a lot about today's world that makes sense of this logic. But our saving grace, as prophet Cohen has said, a grace that is a hallelujah moment for each and every one of us, is that our vessel is cracked, which allows the light to get in.
Go in peach Leonard Cohen. Our loss is Paradise' gain.

The prophets are written in the scriptures. Leonard Cohen knew that.
There's a lover in the story
But the story's still the same
There's a lullaby for suffering
And a paradox to blame
But it's written in the scriptures
And it's not some idle claim
You want it darker
We kill the flame
So far, my favourite song on the album! I hear the other fans also love it.
That violin!
Ich bin ein großer Fan von Dir! Danke für Deine großartige Kunst! Danke... RIP Leonard Cohen

. clever lyrics ..
. astounding music ...
. R.I.P. Leonard
But taken by the hand of my Lord Jesus Christ and my God, because I don't have nor do I need a man who fills my life and soul and not materially, I have everything I need to live humbly because being rich happens and stays
I am now on a similiar time path. I have treasured Leonard's Cohen's words since I steered into young adulthood. And now we are here - at the bridge or sometime after.
That we have to live in a world without Mr Cohen is not right. I first met his music in 1977, I was only 18 and it was an accidental meeting. I held on to his music, his words.....something of the man himself perhaps. There simply isn't another like him, for me his voice is the best of our times. To say that I shall I miss him does not express the sense of loss, but I am glad that I can share this loss with others. Ultimately, I am very grateful that he was at all, so unlike any other that I know; I miss him dreadfully.
Przykro , ze Pan nas puscil , ale kazdy z nas odejdzie. Dzieki gorace za wspaniale songs. Zycze szczescia po tamtej szczescia po tamtej stronie zycia.
Speeechless! Must be marking days! We are love You! We Do!!!!!
forever and ever....
R.I.P
i love your songs.
special - hallejuah
stay still up there :(
True poetry. Your lyrics never faulter; they only improve.
Ciao Leonard...semplicemente la storia!
cosa mi sono persa....tutti questi anni senza la sua musica ,la sua voce...

So beautiful. Thank you..... You're alive
Until Forever, my Dear Leonard ! Wish you a sweet and gentle journey and that you may embrace your muse ... forever!
