“I wonder how many people in this city …” by Leonard Cohen

“I wonder how many people in this city …” by Leonard Cohen 🇨🇦 (21 Sep 1934 – 7 Nov 2016)

I wonder how many people in this city

live in furnished rooms.

Late at night when I look out at the buildings

I swear I see a face in every window

looking back at me

and when I turn away

I wonder how many go back to their desks

and write this down.
