Leonard Cohen
The Smokey Life
I've never seen your eyes so wide I've never seen your appetite quite this occupied Elsewhere is your feast of love I know ... where long ago we agreed to keep it light So lets be married one more night It's light, light enough To let it go It's light enough to let it go Remember when the scenery started fading I held you til you learned to walk on air So don't look down the ground is gone, there's no one waiting anyway The Smoky Life is practiced Everywhere So set your restless heart at ease Take a lesson from these Autumn leaves They waste no time waiting for the snow Don't argue now you'll be late There is nothing to investigate It's light enough, light enough To let it go Light enough to let it go SongtexteRemember when the scenery started fading I held you til you learned to walk on air So don't look down the ground is gone, there's no one waiting anyway The Smoky Life is practiced everywhere Come on back if the moment lends You can look up all my very closest friends Light, light enough To let it go It's light enough to let it go
