Leonard Cohen - Be For Real Lyrics

Are you back in my life to stay
Or is it just for today,
Oh, that you're gonna need me?
If it's a thrill you're looking for,
Honey, I'm flexible...
Oh, yeah...

Just be for real, won't you, baby
Be for real, oh, baby
You see, I... I don't want to be hurt by love again

So, you see, I'm not naive.
I just would like to believe
Ah, what you tell me...
So don't give me the world today
And tomorrow take it away,
Don't do that to me, darling.

Just be for real, won't you, baby
Be for real, won't you, baby
You see, I... I don't want to be hurt by love again
Been hurt so many times...
You see, I... I don't want to be hurt by love again

I don't give a damn about the truth, baby
Except for the naked truth.
Oh, yeah

Just be for real, won't you, baby
Be for real, won't you, baby
You see, I... I don't want to be hurt by love again

Oh, no, no, no
It's just that I... I don't want to be hurt by love again
