LEONARD COHEN

BY JOE D'URSO AND THE STONE CARAVAN



You smoke another cigarette, you roll another bone
smoke inhaled as you sit all alone
thinking 'bout the days when you were on your own

tiny sparks of life ignite a quiet fire
you watch the spinning world, most of it's for hire
but you still feel there's something to gain

and Leonard is singing and Leonard sings out
his voice is filled with every question of a doubt
and Leonard is singing and Leonard sings out
and if Leonard Cohen is singing, I must be blue

you sit and you wonder about each romance
would you take the same turns if offered another chance?
but you realize that your world feels just fine

and every time you've wondered about life's small gains
you've learned to hold judgement, no matter the pain
'cause a good laugh at day's end is still the reward to this game

and Leonard is singing and Leonard sings out
his voice is filled with every question of a doubt
and Leonard is singing and Leonard sings out
and if Leonard Cohen is singing, I must be blue

now morning comes again like an old friend
cemetary looms with the blue skies of June
another year over, 365 gone too soon
and you pray that your last day is sealed with a kiss
and you pray that your last day is sealed with a kiss
you pray that your last day is sealed with a kiss.

and Leonard is singing and Leonard sings out
his voice is filled with every question of a doubt
and Leonard is singing and Leonard sings out
and if Leonard Cohen is singing
if Leonard Cohen is singing I must be blue.
