Leonard Cohen - Closing Time слова песни


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.
