You Got Me Singing Lyrics

You Got Me Singing
Even tho’ the news is bad
You got me singing
The only song I ever had

You got me singing
Ever since the river died
You got me thinking
Of the places we could hide

You got me singing
Even though the world is gone
You got me thinking
I’d like to carry on

You got me singing
Even tho’ it all looks grim
You got me singing
The Hallelujah hymn

You got me singing
Like a prisoner in a jail
You got me singing
Like my pardon’s in the mail

You got me wishing
Our little love would last
You got me thinking
Like those people of the past

You got me singing
Even though the world is gone
You got me thinking
I’d like to carry on

You got me singing
Even tho’ it all went wrong
You got me singing
The Hallelujah song

Popular Problems brings Cohen's near-apocalyptic vision outlined on "The Future" rudely into the present. "When I said: 'I've seen the future, brother, it is murder,' unfortunately, I think that vision has been realized," he told The Daily Telegraph.

However, this final uplifting track finds him in more optimistic mood as he croons, "The bulletin is: 'You got me singing even though the world is gone. You got me thinking I'd like to carry on.'" During a press conference at the Canadian High Commission, someone suggested this was evidence of hidden optimism. "Yeah, I'm a closet optimist," Cohen dryly responded.
