Leather Made Shoes lyrics

by

Leonard Cohen


Mayflower was a girl who came from my room
With a box of faded feathers and her leather-made shoes
But you know when she goes, she'll be crying
‘Cause she died all alone with her feathers and bows

I was just a lonely thing when I met Mr. Bear
And he loved his sleeping next to me and in his eyes I stared
But you know when he goes, he'll be crying
‘Cause he died all alone with his feather and bows

Mary, Mary Mayflower and John Lee all came
On the day that I died upon the spring, the day his wedding came
But you know when I go, I'll be crying
‘Cause I died all alone with my feathers and bows
Don't you know when she goes, she'll be crying
'Cause a love that has died is a sad, sad thing

Mayflower was a girl who came from my room
With a box of faded feathers and her leather-made shoes
But you know when she goes, she'll be crying
‘Cause a memory of you, that’s a sad, sad thing
But you know when I go, I'll be crying
'Cause a love that has died is a sad, sad thing
