Adam Cohen – We Go Home

De Canadese singer/songwriter Adam Cohen begint zich steeds meer te ontworstelen aan de schaduw van zijn vader, de dichter/schrijver & singer/songwriter Leonard Cohen. Samen met een groep enthousiaste muzikanten maakt hij muziek om vrolijk van te worden, zoals in dit heerlijke titelnummer van zijn laatste album We Go Home (2014). De beste live versie die ik eerst had uitgezocht kun je hier  bekijken.  Maar deze is ook best lekker.

We Go Home
Yeah the radio is on,
but the signal is weak.
We both know this song,
way down deep.

It doesn’t matter if we talk,
’cause talk is cheap.
There’s so much the eyes say,
that we don’t speak.

I know, I know.
I’m not supposed to think about you.
I know, I know.
Act natural around you.
I know I’m not supposed
to think of your thirsty rose.
Yeah I know, I know.
I know, I know.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh…

We both know it’s wrong,
but we’re just dancers.
We know this song.
We know the answers.
So we both sing,
what we both know.
And when the song is over,
we go home.

I know, I know.
I’m not supposed to think about you.
I know, I know.
Aact natural around you.
I know I’m not supposed
to think of your thirsty rose.
Yeah I know, I know.
I know, I know.
Oh oh oh oh oh oh…

I know I’m not supposed
to think of your thirsty rose.
I know I’m not supposed
to see you when my eyes are closed.
Or run my hands across your skin real slow.
Or think of how we come together and explode.

I know that when the song is over we go home.
I know that when the song is over we go home.
