Lullaby in Blue lyrics

by

Leonard Cohen


[Verse 1]
I know that I'm no saint
My head is in the clouds
They called you a mistake
But I still, I still say your name out loud

[Chorus]
They called me a stupid girl, just like my mom
Too many men passed through my arms
At seventeen I looked into your eyes
Knew I could never comfort your cries

[Post-Chorus]
Every April still reminds me of you
The child I never knew, my lullaby in blue

[Verse 1]
It all goes by so fast
How lovely you must be
Why you've reached the age at last
That I was when your daddy lived with me

[Chorus]
How I wish we could meet somewhere, talk it through
There is so much I would say to you
There are others, I'm not alone
A younger brother you've never known
[Post-Chorus]
And a baby girl who so reminds me of you
The child I never knew, my lullaby in blue

[Bridge]
As the years go by
Try not to think of us sadly
Believe it if you can
I want to see you so badly

[Post-Chorus]
On your birthday, Mama's thinking of you
The child I never knew, my lullaby in blue

[Outro]
My lullaby in blue
My lullaby
