That Don't Make It Junk

Leonard Cohen · Complete Studio Albums Collection [2011]

I fought against the bottle, but i had to do it drunk

Took my diamond to the pawn show, but that dont make it junk

I know that im forgiven, but i dont know how i know

I dont trust my innerfeelings, you know feelings come and go



how come you called me here tonight?

how come you bother with my heart at all?

you raised me up in grace,

then you put me in a place where i must fall



too late to mix another drink, the lights are goin out

ill just listen to the darkness and i know what thats about



I tried to love you my way

but i couldnt make it whole

so i close the book of longing

and i do what i am told



how come you called me here tonight?

how come you bother with my heart at all?

you raised me up in grace,

then you put me in a place where i must fall



I fought against the bottle, but i had to do it drunk

Took my diamond to the pawn show, but that dont make it junk

I fought against the bottle, but i had to do it drunk

Took my diamond to the pawn show, but that dont make it junk



that dont make it junk

that dont make it juuunnk
