Leonard Cohen - The Darkness

I caught the darkness It was drinking from your cup I caught the darkness Drinking from your cup I said, "Is this contagious?" You said, "Just drink it up." I've got no future I know my days are few The presemt's, not that pleasant Just a lot of things to do I thought the past would last me But the darkness got there too. I should've seen it coming It was red behind your eyes You're young and it was summer I just had to take a dive Winning you was easy But darkness was the price. I don't smoke no cigarette I don't drink no alcohol I ain't had much loving yet But that's always been your call I don't miss it baby I got no taste for anything at all I used to love the rainbow And I used to love the view Another early morning I pretend that it was new But I caught the darkness, baby And I got it worse than you. I caught the darkness It was drinking from your cup I caught the darkness Drinking from your cup I said, "Is this contagious?" You said, "Just drink it up."
