Leonard Cohen - Closing Time Şarkı Sözleri
Leonard Cohen
| Şarkı Sözleri
ah we´re drinking and we´re dancing and the band is really happening and the johnny walker wisdom running high and my very sweet companion she´s the angel of compassion she´s rubbing half the world against her thigh and every drinker every dancer lifts a happy face to thank her the fiddler fiddles something so sublime all the women tear their blouses off and the men they dance on the polka-dots and it´s partner found, it´s partner lost and it´s hell to pay when the fiddler stops: it´s closing time yeah the women tear their blouses off and the men they dance on the polka-dots and it´s partner found, it´s partner lost and it´s hell to pay when the fiddler stops: it´s closing time
ah we´re lonely, we´re romantic and the cider´s laced with acid and the holy spirit´s crying, "where´s the beef?" and the moon is swimming naked and the summer night is fragrant with a mighty expectation of relief so we struggle and we stagger down the snakes and up the ladder to the tower where the blessed hours chime and i swear it happened just like this: a sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss the gates of love they budged an inch i can´t say much has happened since but closing time
i swear it happened just like this: a sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss the gates of love they budged an inch i can´t say much has happened since closing time
i loved you for your beauty but that doesn´t make a fool of me: you were in it for your beauty too and i loved you for your body there´s a voice that sounds like god to me declaring, declaring, declaring that your body´s really you and i loved you when our love was blessed and i love you now there´s nothing left but sorrow and a sense of overtime and i missed you since the place got wrecked and i just don´t care what happens next looks like freedom but it feels like death it´s something in between, i guess it´s closing time
yeah i missed you since the place got wrecked by the winds of change and the weeds of sex looks like freedom but it feels like death it´s something in between, i guess it´s closing time
yeah we´re drinking and we´re dancing but there´s nothing really happening and the place is dead as heaven on a saturday night and my very close companion gets me fumbling gets me laughing she´s a hundred but she´s wearing something tight and i lift my glass to the awful truth which you can´t reveal to the ears of youth except to say it isn´t worth a dime and the whole damn place goes crazy twice and it´s once for the devil and once for christ but the boss don´t like these dizzy heights we´re busted in the blinding lights, busted in the blinding lights of closing time
the whole damn place goes crazy twice and it´s once for the devil and once for christ but the boss don´t like these dizzy heights we´re busted in the blinding lights, busted in the blinding lights of closing time
oh the women tear their blouses off and the men they dance on the polka-dots it´s closing time and it´s partner found, it´s partner lost and it´s hell to pay when the fiddler stops it´s closing time i swear it happened just like this: a sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss it´s closing time the gates of love they budged an inch i can´t say much has happened since but closing time i loved you when our love was blessed i love you now there´s nothing left but closing time i miss you since the place got wrecked by the winds of change and the weeds of sex.
