Leonard Cohen - Tennessee Waltz (Live) Lyrics
I was dancing with my darlin'
to the Tennessee Waltz
When an old friend I happened to see
Introduced him to my loved one
and while they were waltzing
I remember the night and the Tennessee Waltz
Now I know just how much I have lost
Yes I lost my little darlin'
The night they were playing
The beautiful Tennessee Waltz.
She comes dancing through the darkness
To the Tennessee Waltz
And I feel like I'm falling apart
And it's stronger than drink
And it's deeper than sorrow

Leonard Cohen Tennessee Waltz (Live) Comments
Leonard's new added verse out does all the previous lines of this song! Class
Seven times I saw him live - the first time was 1970 at the Isle of Wight Festival when I was just sixteen - afterwards ones in Athens, Amsterdam and Berlin, followed by three concerts within his last years 2008, 2010 and 2013 here in Stockholm - His last one was the best I ever saw placed just in front of the stage
Très belle chanson.
La musique. Les paroles. Et cette voix. Je ne m en lasse pas. Très bons musiciens. Wonderfull. Thanks Mister Léonard Cohen
Love!♡
By "music", I don't mean what he PLAYED, but the music that he LOVED. Notice that he mentions Willie Nelson in "The Tower of Song" He doesn't talk about it much - its HIS private love.
I believe you meant Hank Williams
Country music was actually his favorite kind of music. His first 'group' was a C&W band. - he wore a "fringe jacket", a cowboy hat,
the whole shebang! (when he was a teenager)
<3 dziękuję
thats just as perfect as it gets
one word Beautiful xxx pam
Beautiful Leonard.
stoned!
wonderful. thanks very much musiclover!
Yes, you are right. I think a lot of people associate this song with Hank Williams and I (wrongly) assumed that he wrote it. Thanks for the info :o)
How do ya figure? The song was written by Pee Wee King & Redd Stewart.
I love this man so much. I find it impressive that Leonard Cohen knew theman worked hard by notcing the calluses on this man's hand. I sure hope he was there, and was able to see this tune performed.
I love this; it is Leonard Cohen's homage to Hank Williams ("A hundred floors above me in the Tower of Song"). Really good, thanks.
Beautiful, loved this.
