"A Song For Leonard Cohen" lyrics
"A Song For Leonard Cohen"
I wish that I could buy you a drink
And then more and then five
I'd get you drunk and I'd get me outgoing
All week or just this one night
And then maybe we could go for a walk
And I'll just listen while you talk
My imagination slips
Then I have you taking
Me to Barcelona for the weekend
You describe the night
Phil Spector with his revolver
Served his ceremonial wine
We'd compare mythologies
And toast those friends that never believed
That our voices ever had much to offer
And then maybe we could go for a walk
And I'd just listen while you talk
I wish that I could buy you a drink
And then more and then five
At the end of the night
I'd conveniently misplace my wallet
And you'd wind up buying mine
We'd compare mythologies
And toast those friend that never believed
That our voices ever had much to offer
And then maybe we would go for a walk
And I'd just listen while you talk
You'd point to the harbor
Moonlight against the water
The boats against the dock
And through the dark
Our shadows then would get along
And I'd just listen while you talk
And through the dark
Our shadows then might get along
And I'd just listen while you talk

I am weary
I am poor
I don't have enough
To impress you anymore
Not a nickel, not a dime
No possession that is mine
There is something for to gain
Though I have nothing to my name...

Seems like, these days, you couldn't run away at all
And even if you did, what you got to run away to
Just another drunk daddy with a white man's...
Mary Gauthier - "Got Your Six" Six o'clock's always behind you
Six o'clock on the battlefield
Six o'clock is black as gun smoke
At six o'clock our deal is sealed
No need to talk, or testify
Just keep your story tucked inside
No...
Margo Price - "Tennessee Song" Let's go back to Tennessee
You and me
Let's go back to Tennessee
Let's go back
Get off your chest what's on your mind
Pull the cork and pour the wine
Spill the beans, break the bread
The way you...
