  • (Lala, lalalala, lala, lalalala)
    I'm traveling light
    It's au revoir
    My once so bright
    My fallen star

    I'm running late
    They'll close the bar
    I used to play
    One mean guitar

    I guess I'm just
    Somebody who
    Has given up
    On the me and you
    I'm not alone
    I've met a few
    Traveling light like
    We used to do
    (Lala, lalalala, lala, lalalala)

    Goodnight goodnight
    My fallen star
    I guess you're right
    You always are

    I know you're right
    About the blues
    You live some life
    You'd never choose

    I'm just a fool
    A dreamer who
    Forgot to dream
    Of the me and you
    I'm not alone
    I've met a few
    Traveling light like
    We used to do
    (Lala, lalalala, lala, lalalala)

    Traveling light
    It's au revoir
    My once so bright
    My fallen star

    I'm running late
    They'll close the bar
    I used to play
    One mean guitar

    I guess I'm just
    Somebody who
    Has given up
    On the me and you
    I'm not alone
    I've met a few
    Traveling light like
    We used to do

    But if the road
    Leads back to you
    Must I forget
    The things I knew
    When I was friends
    With one or two
    Traveling light like
    We used to do
    I'm traveling light (lala, lalalala, lala, lalalala) Writer/s: Adam Cohen, Leonard Cohen, Patrick Leonard
