Leaving the Table

If I ever loved you/ If I knew your name

Autor Redacció
Poques setmanes abans de morir, Leonard Cohen va publicar el que seria el seu darrer disc, You Want It Darker. Hi va mostrar la seva ànima en cançons com Leaving the Table, del qual Christopher Mills n'ha dirigit el videoclip pòstum. 


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 or 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
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 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
