Lyrics Hey, That's No Way to Say Goodbye - Leonard Cohen

Hey, That's No Way to Say Goodbye

I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm
Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm
Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new
In city and in forest, they smiled like me and you
But now it’s come to distances and both of us must try
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
And hey, that’s no way to say goodbye
I’m not looking for another as I wander in my time
Walk me to the corner, our steps will always rhyme
You know my love goes with you and your love stays with me
It’s just the way it changes like the shoreline and the sea
But let’s not talk of love or chains or things we can’t untie
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
And hey, that’s no way to say goodbye
I loved you in the morning, our kisses deep and warm
Your hair upon the pillow like a sleepy golden storm
Yes, many loved before us, I know that we are not new
In city and in forest, they smiled like me and you
But now it’s come to distances and both of us must try
Your eyes are soft with sorrow
And hey, that’s no way to say goodbye
