Chartreuse lyrics

by

Leonard Cohen


[Verse 1]
Some men sing the blues under the pale moon
But I don't want to sing them anymore
I used to wander aimlessly
Now I understand what they do that for

[Pre-Chorus]
Ahhhh, I'm alive tonight
Ahhhh, please don't let me down
Ahhh, ahhhh, ahhhh

[Chorus]
Goodnight forsaken dreamers
I'm caught in the blues
And I wish I could reassure you
With some better news
I'm drinking chartreuse, chartreuse, chartreuse
It's the color of my gown and my soul, baby

[Verse 2]
Some men sing the blues
But I'm just a woman on the run
I wander this town aimlessly
Looking for some kind of fun

Some kids cry when they hear their
Mother in the city and it's fine
It's fine, it's fine, it's fine

[Pre-Chorus]
Ahhhh, I'm alive tonight
Ahhhh, please don't let me down
Ahhh, ahhhh, ahhhh

[Chorus]
Goodnight forsaken dreamers
I'm caught in the blues
And I wish I could reassure you
With some better news
I'm drinking chartreuse, chartreuse, chartreuse
It's the color of my gown and my soul, baby

Brave and wicked, wild and free
Living valiant next to me
You make me feel like I'm 18
Or maybe twenty, baby

[Bridge]
Oh, don't let me down now
Dont, don't let me down now
Somehow, somehow we'll find our way out
(Let's get out of here)

Dont, don't, please don't let me down
Somehow we'll find our way around
Baby, why are you so sad?

[Fade Out]
Don't let me, don't let me baby
Don't let go, baby, we had something, we had something (x2)
