Leonard Cohen
That Don’t Make It Junk
[Verse 1]
I fought against the bottle
But I had to do it drunk
Took my diamond to the pawnshop
But that don't make it junk
[Verse 2]
And I know that I'm forgiven
But I don't know how I know
I don't trust my inner feelings
Inner feelings come and go
[Chorus]
How come you called me here tonight?
How come you bother
With my heart at all?
You raise me up in grace
Then you put me in a place
Where I must fall
[Verse 3]
Too late to fix another drink
The lights are going out
I'll just listen to the darkness sing
I know what that's about
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
I tried to love you my way
But I couldn't make it hold
So I closed the Book of Longing
And I do what I am told
[Chorus]
How come you called me here tonight?
How come you bother with my heart at all?
You raise me up in grace
Then you put me in a place
Where I must fall
[Outro]
I fought against the bottle
But I had to do it drunk
I took my diamond to the pawnshop
But that don't make it junk
That don't make it junk
That don't make it junk
That don't make it junk
