Leonard Cohen

And then leaning on your window sill

He'll say one day 

You caused his will to weaken 

With your love and warmth and shelter

And then taking from his wallet

An old schedule of trains, he'll say

"I told you when I came I was a stranger"

(I was having trouble deciding which verse from "The Stranger Song" to use when it suddenly occurred to me that I didn't have to choose -- nothing was stopping me from using both of them in consecutive posts.)

Leonard Cohen

And then sweeping up the jokers 

That he left behind

You find 

He did not leave you very much 

Not even laughter

Like any dealer 

He was watching for the card

That is so high and wild

He'll never need to deal another

He was just some Joseph looking for a manger

(Cohen's 1967 song, "The Stranger Song," was used in the opening credit sequence of Robert Altman's 1971 movie, McCabe and Mrs. Miller.)
