Leonard Cohen - Antique Song lyrics

[Leonard Cohen - Antique Song lyrics]

Too old, too old to play the part
Too old, God only knows!
I'll keep the little silver heart
The red and folded rose

And in the arms of someone strong
You'll have what we had none
I'll finish up my winter song
For you it's almost done

But oh! the kisses that we kissed
That swept me to the shore
Of seas where hardly I exist
Except to kiss you more

I have the little silver heart
The red and folded rose
The one you gave me at the start
The other at the close

He waited for you all night long
Go run to him, go run
I'll finish up my winter song
For you it's almost done
