Hey, That’s No Way to Say Goodbye

Leonard Cohen / Leonard Cohen: Songs of Leonard Cohen (1967)

A
I love you in the morning our kisses deep and warm,
F#m
Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm.
D
Yes, many loved before us I know that we are not new,
A
In city and in forest they smiled like me and you.
F#m
But now it's come to distances and both of us must try
D
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
E A E
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye-ye
 
I'm not looking for another 
As I wander in my time 
Walk me to the corner 
Our steps will always rhyme 
You know my love goes with you 
As your love stays with me 
It's just the way it changes 
Like the shoreline and the sea 
But let's not talk of love or chains 
And things we can't untie 
Your eyes are soft with sorrow 
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye 
 
I loved you in the morning 
Our kisses deep and warm 
Your hair upon the pillow 
Like a sleepy golden storm 
Yes, many loved before us 
I know that we are not new 
In city and in forest 
They smiled like me and you 
But let's not talk of love or chains 
And things we can't untie 
Your eyes are soft with sorrow 
Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.
