Lyrics Leonard Cohen

Leonard Cohen

Hey, That's No Way to Say Goodbye

I loved you in the morning our kisses deep and warm,

Emi

your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm.

Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new,

in city and in forest they smiled like me and you.

Emi

But now it's come to distances and both of us must try,

your eyes are soft with sorrow.

Hey, that's no way to say goodb...ye !

I'm not looking for another, as I wander in my time,

Emi

walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme.

You know my love goes with you, as your love stays with me,

it's just the way it changes like the shoreline and the sea.

Emi

But let's not talk of love or chains, and things we can't untie,

Your eyes are soft with sorrow.

Hey, that's no way to say goodb...ye !
