Leonard Cohen – That Don't Make It Junk lyrics

I fought against the bottle, but i had to do it drunk
Took my diamond to the pawn show, but that dont make it junk
I know that im forgiven, but i dont know how i know
I dont trust my innerfeelings, you know feelings come and go

how come you called me here tonight?
how come you bother with my heart at all?
you raised me up in grace,
then you put me in a place where i must fall

too late to mix another drink, the lights are goin out
ill just listen to the darkness and i know what thats about

I tried to love you my way
but i couldnt make it whole
so i close the book of longing
and i do what i am told

how come you called me here tonight?
how come you bother with my heart at all?
you raised me up in grace,
then you put me in a place where i must fall

I fought against the bottle, but i had to do it drunk
Took my diamond to the pawn show, but that dont make it junk
I fought against the bottle, but i had to do it drunk
Took my diamond to the pawn show, but that dont make it junk

that dont make it junk
that dont make it juuunnk
