The Stranger Song Lyrics
It's true that all the men you knew were dealers

I believe this song deals with the conflict of a men who wants to settle down and on the other hand wants to follow his calling. Cohen is looking for a way to settle this conflict but he knows that it is a lost cause and that even if you agree to settle you will always wish you had moved on and that those who travel for many years wish they had settled. Check out the song "ten years" by led zepelin.
