Darkness

Darkness - Leonard Cohen (萊昂納德·科恩)

I caught the darkness

It was drinking from your cup

I caught the darkness

Drinking from your cup

I said is this contagious

You said just drink it up

I've got no future

I know my days are few

The present's not that pleasant

Just a lot of things to do

I thought the past would last me

But the darkness got there too

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I should've seen it coming

It was red behind your eyes

You're young and it was summer

I just had to take a dive

Winning you was easy

But darkness was the price

I don't smoke no cigarette

I don't drink no alcohol

I ain't had much loving yet

But that's always been your call

I don't miss it baby

I got no taste for anything at all

I used to love the rainbow

And I used to love the view

Another early morning

I pretend that it was new

But I caught the darkness baby

And I got it worse than you

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

I caught the darkness

It was drinking from your cup

I caught the darkness

Drinking from your cup

I said is this contagious

You said just drink it up
