Leonard Cohen - The Darkness Lyrics
I caught the darknessIt was drinking from your cupI caught the darknessDrinking from your cupI said, "Is this contagious?"You said, "Just drink it up."I've got no futureI know my days are fewThe presemt's, not that pleasantJust a lot of things to doI thought the past would last meBut the darkness got there too.I should've seen it comingIt was red behind your eyesYou're young and it was summerI just had to take a diveWinning you was easyBut darkness was the price.I don't smoke no cigaretteI don't drink no alcoholI ain't had much loving yetBut that's always been your callI don't miss it babyI got no taste for anything at allI used to love the rainbowAnd I used to love the viewAnother early morningI pretend that it was newBut I caught the darkness, babyAnd I got it worse than you.I caught the darknessIt was drinking from your cupI caught the darknessDrinking from your cupI said, "Is this contagious?"You said, "Just drink it up."
