Leonard Cohen – Hey, That's No Way to Say Goodbye Lyrics 16 years ago
the shoreline and the sea are things that happen naturally with the world, they can't really be changed and are unpredictable, just like the sun setting and rising.

you can't change them. it's just the way the world works.

lost love. acknowledging lost love. understanding and accepting lost love. easing the pain of lost love with a comforting goodbye.

people that are very much in love but will never be together, because of each other.

go in peace, i will always love you.

i'm done.

Cold War Kids – Saint John Lyrics 16 years ago
i don't think there is anything to interpret from these lyrics. it's a story. the storytelling style of the song in my opinion is reminiscent of johnny cash.

deeper meaning, maybe.

great song slash story. absolutely.

A.C. Newman – Drink To Me, Babe, Then Lyrics 16 years ago
what the scores don't show represents a relationship that on paper is failed and over. but, "what the scores don't show" (common sports term) is the actual chemistry, and good things that came out of the "years that fell through" in the relationship. the small victories. the ones that didn't win the game, but still were meaningful to those involved.

baby we both know, what the scores don't show.

drink to me, babe, then.

this song is awesome.

Camera Obscura – Lloyd, I'm Ready to Be Heartbroken Lyrics 16 years ago
it's not a response. it would be crude and unusual for a modern artist to respond in retaliation decades after a song has been made by an artist. it's a tribute. she's SO flattered that Cole attempted to see on of their shows, that she can't "see past her own nose". ala caught up in the moment, and is ready to catch that intellectual beat-down that he sings about in his song, and she is happy about it. enlightenment from a homegrown idol.

trying to change, meanwhile the reason you are changing is moving on. then you try to catch up, and it's too late.

The Kinks – Death Of A Clown Lyrics 17 years ago
there were no cell phones and video games when this song was written, but i think you've got the right vibe.

it's someone past their time. getting older, prime time has passed by. things change. the circus theme is symbolic of life passing by, life changing, not an actual circus.

lion tamers whip could be a man who used to attract women, his whip no longer cracking, tigers and lions = women, whom no longer roar or bite at the lion tamer.

the old fortune teller dead on the floor = no future needed for an old man, life has been lived.

just what i get from it, not saying i'm right.
