MIDWEEK CRISIS, you are feeling a little down, Come to WEDNESDAY CLUB we have got Leonard Cohen, he will cheer you up!
She wanted to spread her wings
 |
| It was torn at the shoulder |
The Black Trench Coat
She wanted to spread her wings
(her thighs)
it was January, it was winter, it was cold
i was alone in my dungeon
the single bar heater gave little warmth
'Songs of Love and Hate' arrived today
it was on repeat
a bottle was on the table
two fingers of comfort were left
the words 'Jane came by with a lock of your hair'
stung, it stung in my grieving ears
the cigarette smoke froze in the cold
the bottle stood empty
the room slowed down
i needed a drink
i slipped on my 'Famous' Black Trenchcoat
i headed for the door, the night, the biting rain
searching for a Bar, searching for anywhere
wanting her
WEDNESDAY CLUB - Leonard Cohen - Famous Blue Raincoat

Tulis commentsSuperb post for a superb song. I have you to thank for getting me into Cohen. I love his solemn low voice. I didn't know the pain could make you so poetic. I'm definitely a member of the Wednesday club,

I remember this being played in the wee small hours, after a few drinks. Everyone goes quiet and is forced to listen. Fabulous song and wonderful poem, I'm seriously impressed! Great comment too ms Hunter.
