Tribute To Hillary Clinton, On the Morning of Our Separation
(all lyrics, Leonard Cohen)

Hey, that's No Way to Say Goodbye

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhfSdq2R9IA

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 as 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 and things we can't untie,
your eyes are soft with sorrow,

...Hey, that's no way to say goodbye.

So Long, Marianne

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T86tKSEdLpQ

Oh, you are really such a pretty one.
I see you've gone and changed your name again.
And just when I climbed this whole mountainside,
to wash my eyelids in the rain!

Now so long, Marianne, it's time that we began
to laugh and cry and cry and laugh about it all again.


Closing Time

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrPEM2qc-j8

I loved you for your beauty
but that doesn't make a fool of me:
you were in it for your beauty too
and I loved you for your body
there's a voice that sounds like God to me
declaring, declaring, declaring that your body's really you
And I loved you when our love was blessed
and I love you now there's nothing left
but sorrow and a sense of overtime
and I missed you since the place got wrecked
And I just don't care what happens next
looks like freedom but it feels like death
it's something in between, I guess
it's CLOSING TIME

A beautiful selection, and a classy post.
