Goodnight - Lyrics by Leonard Cohen


Lyrics
I washed the dishes poured out the old wine

Called a new friend for the second time

It's not bad this brand new life

It's clean and it's sharp like a brand new knife

I pull up the covers and curl up tight

Turn down the sound turn off the light

Close my eyes and I quietly whisper

Goodnight


You're not here you're not even there

Out of my heart out of my hair
I can't roll away with this missing piece

You could only ever want what I could never ever be


How can I be okay if I'm pulling away

All the things that held together my life

All I want tonight is to touch you and kiss you

But I only wish you

Goodnight
