Leonard Cohen- “Joan of Arc”

It was deep into his fiery heart
he took the dust of Joan of Arc,
and then she clearly understood:
if he was fire, oh then she must be wood.

I saw her wince, I saw her cry,
I saw the glory in her eye.
Myself, I long for love and light,
but must it come so cruel, and oh so bright?
