Leonard Cohen — Tonight Will Be Fine Live at the Isle of Wight

[Introduction] Oh, we're surely in need of matches [Verse 1] Sometimes I find I get to thinking of the past We swore to each other then that our love would surely last You kept right on loving, I went on a fast Now I am too thin and your love is too vast [Chorus] But I know from your eyes And I know from your pretty little smile That tonight, tonight will be fine Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine For a while [Verse 2] Well, I choose the rooms that I live in with care The windows are small and the walls almost bare They've got only one bed and they've only got one prayer And I listen all night for your step on the stair [Chorus] But I know from your eyes And I know from your pretty little smile That tonight, tonight will be fine Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine, oh yeah For a while [Verse 3] Sometimes I see her undressing for me She's the soft naked lady that love meant her to be And she's moving her body so brave and so free If I've got to remember that's a fine memory [Chorus] But I know from your eyes And I know from your pretty little smile That tonight, tonight will be fine Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine For a while [Verse 4 (not on studio version)] Oh, I've looked into the mirrors in numberless places They all smile back at me with their troublesome faces And the cards that they dealt me, there weren't any aces And the horses never listen to me at the races [Chorus] But I know from your eyes And I know from your pretty little smile That tonight, tonight will be fine Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine, yeah For a while [Verse 5 (not on studio version)] There's still one or two of us, walking the street No arrows of direction painted under our feet No angels to warn us away from the heat And no honey to keep us where it is sweet [Chorus] Oh, but I know from your eyes And I know from your pretty little smile That tonight will be fine Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine For a while And I know from your eyes And I know from your pretty little smile That tonight will be fine Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine For a while
