Leonard Cohen
"Go No More A-Roving" lyrics

Go No More A-Roving

So we'll go no more
No more
So we'll go no more
No more

So we'll go
No more a-roving
So late into the night
Though the heart
Be still as loving
And the moon
Be still as bright

For the sword
Outwears its sheath
And the soul
Outwears the breast
And the heart
Must pause to breathe
And love itself
Have rest

Though the night
Was made for loving
And the day
Returns too soon
Yet we'll go
No more a-roving
By the light
Of the moon
By the light
Of the moon

Though the night
Was made for loving
And the day
Returns too soon
Yet we'll go
No more a-roving
By the light
Of the moon

We'll go no more a-roving
We'll go no more a-roving
We'll go no more a-roving
By the light
Of the moon

So we'll go no more
No more
