Stages Songtext
von Leonard Cohen

Yeah my friends are gone and my hair is grey
And I ache in the places where I used to play
And Im crazy for love but Im not coming on
Im just paying my rent every day in the tower of song


Im just paying my rent every day
In the tower of song

I said to Hank Williams: how lonely does it get?
Oohh Hank williams he hasn′t answered yet
Ooh but I hear him coughing all night long
A hundred floors above me
In the tower of song
