Leonard Cohen - The smokey life

Tekst :

I ve never seen your eyes so wide
I ve never seen your appetite quite this occupied
Elsewhere is your feast of love
I know ... where long ago we agreed to keep it light
So lets be married one more night
It s light, light enough
To let it go
It s light enough to let it go

Remember when the scenery started fading
I held you til you learned to walk on air
So don t look down the ground is gone,
there s no one waiting anyway
The Smoky Life is practiced
Everywhere

So set your restless heart at ease
Take a lesson from these Autumn leaves
They waste no time waiting for the snow
Don t argue now you ll be late
There is nothing to investigate

It s light enough, light enough
To let it go
Light enough to let it go

Remember when the scenery started fading
I held you til you learned to walk on air
So don t look down the ground is gone,
there s no one waiting anyway
The Smoky Life is practiced everywhere

Come on back if the moment lends
You can look up all my very closest friends

Light, light enough
To let it go
It s light enough to let it go

    Billie listens

    Comin out of the window
    Watchin down from the wall
    Billie listens to your heartbeat
    Floatin down the hall

    Sufferin in the land

    Da, da, da, day...
    Sufferin in the land

    It is plain to see we re in a devil situation
    Sufferin in the land
    Nearly half of the world on the world of starvation
    Sufferin in the land
    And the children...

    I hate to sleep alone

    You were the only thing I had
    How could a good love go so bad
    Somehow I guess I should have known
    That you would leave me here alone

    They say you found somebody new
    But that won t change my love for you
    How could you leave me...

    Lucknow

    I guess it s love...
    It can be said in approximately...
    3000 ways...
    Not including showing it.

    A day doesn t go by when Mr. Giambelli doesn t tell Mrs.
    Giambelli that, uh, he loves her.

    I know that...
    Everyday,
