The Great Event - Leonard Cohen

It? s going to happen very soon

The great event, which will end the horror

Which will end the sorrow

Next Tuesday when the sun goes down

I will play the Moonlight Sonata backwards

This will reverse the effects of the world? s mad plunge

Into suffering, for the last 200 million years

What a lovely night that would be

What a sigh of relief, as the senile robins

Become bright red again, and the retired nightingales

Pick up their dusty tails, and assert the Majesty of Creation
