Cohen, Leonard - Tonight Will Be Fine Lyrics

Check out Teddy Thompson version of this beautiful song.

*Songs From a Room" is such a brutal album that this song sounds like the sweetest thing in the world.

when a beautiful dear local dj (who now lives somewhere else) named skoca plays this, i know everything will be fine. every love i had comes to my mind when Leonard let's a little laugh come out in the middle of the song, how beautiful! bittersweetness that makes you crave for the honey in life

but i know from your eyes and i know from your smile that tonight will be fine, for a while.

I love the sarcastic flat bass notes sliding down when the song goes to the V chord. Like so much oh Cohen's music even in the sweetest moments there's a dash of the uncanny x :)

There is a french version of this. It's called "Demain sera bien" by Graeme Allwright.

I love the way he laughs in between those verses...Glad they left it in....

Yes. That's a fine memory. ❤

Thank you lisa and thank you leonard

This has strong Johnny Cash vibes

Leonard♡

soporific

This is such a brilliant soft meaningful relaxing song by the master, thank you for posting.

Come on Leonard leave some of those good lyrics for other people to find. Best lyricist ever.

Hi, you have got to joking ! there is no one who even comes close and not likely too either, LC unique and will always outshine.

Sometimes I find I get to
Thinking of the past
We swore to each other then
Our love would surely last

You kept right on loving
I went on a fast
Now I am too thin
And your love is too vast

But I know from your eyes
And I know from your smile
That tonight will be fine
Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine
For a while

I choose the rooms that I live in with care
The windows are small and the walls almost bare
There's only one bed and there's only one prayer
I listen all night for your step on the stair

But I know from your eyes
And I know from your smile
That tonight will be fine
Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine
For a while

Oh, sometimes I see her undressing for me
She's the soft naked lady love meant her to be
And she's moving her body so brave and so free
If I've got to remember that's a fine memory

And I know from her eyes
And I know from her smile
That tonight will be fine
Will be fine, will be fine, will be fine
For a while

And I know
And I know
And I know

Hearing this tonight, I know that tonight will be fine

It's been five years and I still haven't got over my ex. Fuck everything.

El más grande. D.E.P.

I always think of the movie Control when I hear this song.

A nice song

Thanks Lisa for posting all these Leonard Cohen songs.

One of the most positive and uplifting songs and also the most crushing and existentially brutal songs of all time. It's all about that duality, that Deleuzian paradox.

nice beat -

fine for a while you gotta do what you gotta do to try to stay on an even keel

the description haha

Lovely song and musical performance !

Sometimes I find I get to thinking of the past. 
We swore to each other then that our love would surely last. 
You kept right on loving, I went on a fast, 
now I am too thin and your love is too vast. 
But I know from your eyes 
and I know from your smile 
that tonight will be fine, 
will be fine, will be fine, will be fine 
for a while. 

I choose the rooms that I live in with care, 
the windows are small and the walls almost bare, 
there's only one bed and there's only one prayer; 
I listen all night for your step on the stair. 

But I know from your eyes 
and I know from your smile 
that tonight will be fine, 
will be fine, will be fine, will be fine 
for a while. 

Oh sometimes I see her undressing for me, 
she's the soft naked lady love meant her to be 
and she's moving her body so brave and so free. 
If I've got to remember that's a fine memory. 

And I know from her eyes 
and I know from her smile 
that tonight will be fine, 
will be fine, will be fine, will be fine 
for a while.

thanks for the lyrics....

You are a sweet darling to share this. ^_^ So cute.

There are still one or two of us out walking the street
No arrows of direction painted under our feet
No angels to warn us away from the heat
and no honey to keep us where it is sweet

But I know....

He left out all the stupid dadadum dadadees at the end. This guy was just part of the cia mind op they call the hippy movement. Adding lyrics about eating kids brains and shit. Wake up people. This isn’t even good music. Ffs

but i know from your eyes and i know from smile that tonight we''ll be fine, for a while.
