Leonard Cohen – Leaving the Table

Leonard Cohen – Leaving the Table Lyrics

Artist: Leonard Cohen
Song: Leaving the Table

I’m leaving the table
I’m out of the game
I don’t know the people
In your picture frame

If I ever loved you, oh no, no
It’s a crying shame
If I ever loved you
If I knew your name

You don’t need a lawyer
I’m not making a claim
You don’t need to surrender
I’m not taking aim

I don’t need a lover, no, no, no
The wretched beast is tame
I don’t need a lover
So blow out the flame

There’s nobody missing
There is no reward
Little by little
We’re cutting the cord

We’re spending the treasure, oh no, no
That love cannot afford
I know you can feel it
The sweetness restored

I don’t need a reason
For what I became
I’ve got these excuses
They’re tired and they’re lame

I don’t need a pardon, no no, no no, no
There’s no one left to blame
I’m leaving the table
I’m out of the game

I’m leaving the table
I’m out of the game
