WatchtowerBob DylanSaid the joker to the thief. There's too much confusion I can't get no relief Business men they, drink my wine. There plowmen dig my earth. None of them along the line know what any of it's worth. No reason to get excited, the thief he kindly spoke. There are many among us, who feel that life is but a joke (Ha Ha- Ha ha) But you and I we've been through all that,(Yes we have) and this is not our fate. So let us not talk falsely, the hour is getting late And All along the Watchtower, prince's kept the view. While all the women all the women all the women came and went Barefoot servants too. Out side in the cold distance, a wild cat did growl la la la la la Two riders two riders approaching, the wind began to howl The thief he take my money take The thief he take my money take Am I insane Auf Wiedersehen Am I insane The thief is safe NO REASON TO GET EXCITED! (YEAH!....)

Dreaming TreeThe old man said to me "Long before these crowded streets Here stood my dreaming tree" Below it he would sit For hours at a time Now progress takes away What forever took to find Now he's falling hard He feels the falling dark How he longs to be Beneath his dreaming tree Conquered fear to climb A moment froze in time When the girl who first he kissed Promised him she'd be his Remembered mother's words There beneath the tree "No matter what the world You'll always be my baby" Mommy come quick The dreaming tree has died The air is growing thick A fear he cannot hide The dreaming tree has died Oh have you no pity This thing I do I do not deny it All through this smile As crooked as danger I do not deny I know in my mind I would leave you now If I had the strength to I would leave you up To your own devices Will you not talk Can you take pity I don't ask much But won't you speak Please From the start She knew she had it made Easy up 'til then For sure she'd make the grade Adorers came in hordes To lay down in her wake She gave it all she had But treasures slowly fade Now she's falling hard She feels the fall of dark How did this fall apart She drinks to fill it up A smile of sweetest flowers Wilted so and soured Black tears stain the cheeks That once were so admired She thinks when she was small There on her father's knee How he had promised her "You'll always be my baby" "Daddy come quick The dreaming tree has died I can't find my way home There is no place to hide The dreaming tree has died" Oh if I had the strength... Take me back Save me please
PigHow we move our lives for another day Like skipping a beat What if a great wave should wash us all away Just thinking out loud Don't mean to dwell on this dying thing But looking at blood It's alive right now Deep and sweet within Pouring through our veins Intoxicate moving wine to tears Drinking it deep Then an evening spent dancing It's you and me This love will open our world From the dark side we can see a glow of something bright There's much more than we see here Don't burn the day away Is this not enough This blessed sip of life Is it not enough Staring down at the ground Oh then complain and pray more from above Greedy little pig Stop just watch your world trickle away Oh it's your problem now It'll all be dead and gone in a few short years Just love will open our eyes Just love will put the hope in our minds Much more than we could ever know Don't burn the day away Come sister my brother Shake up your bones shake up your feet I'm saying open up And let the rain come pouring in Wash out this tired notion That the best is yet to come But while you're dancing on the ground Don't think of when you're gone Love! love!? what more is there? We need the light of love in here Don't beat your head Dry your eyes Let the love in there There are bad times But that's ok Just look for love in it Don't burn the day away Look Here are we On this starry night staring into space And I must say I feel as small as dust Lying down here What point could there be troubling Head down wondering what will become of me Why concern we cannot see But no reason to abandon it Time is short but that's all right Maybe I'll go in the middle of the night Take your hands from your eyes, my love Everything must end some time Don't burn the day away Come sister My brother Shake up your bones shake up your feet I'm saying open up And let the rain come flooding in Wash out this tired notion That the best is yet to come But while you're dancing on the ground Don't think of when you're gone Love! love!? what more is there? We need the light of love in here Don't beat your head Dry your eyes Let the love in there There are bad times But that's ok Just look for love in it
SpoonStirring my coffee I thought of you And turned to the gate On my way came up with the answers I scratched my head And the answers were gone From hand to hand Wrist to the elbow Red blood sand could Dad be God Crosses cross hung out like a wet rag Forgive you? Why? You hung me out to dry Maybe I'm crazy But laughing out loud Makes the pain pass by And maybe you're a little crazy But laughing out loud makes it all subside Holding, I'm holding I'm still falling Spoon in spoon Stirring my coffee I thought of this And turned to the gate But on my way Crack Lightning and thunder I hid my head And the storm slipped away Well maybe I'm crazy And laughing out loud Makes it all pass by And maybe you're a little crazy And laughing out loud Makes it all alright Laughing out loud From time to time Minutes and hours Some move ahead while Some lag behind It's like the balloon that Rise and then vanish This drop of hope That falls from his eyes Spoon in spoon Stirring my coffee I think of this And turn to go away But as I walk There're voices behind me saying Sinners sin Come now and play

Long Black VeilDanny Dill and Marijohn WilkinSomeone was killed beneath the town hall light There were few at the scene But they all agreed That the slayer who ran Looked a lot like me She walks these hills in a Long Black Veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me The judge said, "Son, what is your alibi? If you were somewhere else, Then you won't have to die." Well, I said not a word Though it meant my life For I'd been in the arms Of my best friend's wife Oh, she walks these hills in a Long Black Veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me Oh now, the scaffold was high Eternity is near She stood in the crowd And shed not a tear Oh, sometimes at night When the cold winds blow In a Long Black Veil She stands over my bones She walks these hills in a Long Black Veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me She walks these hills in a Long Black Veil She visits my grave when the night winds wail Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me Nobody knows, nobody sees, nobody knows but me Nobody knows but me...

Live in Chicago - 12/19/98The MakerBlack, and cold like the night I stand with arms wide open I've run a twisted mile I'm a stranger in the eyes of the Maker I could not see For fog in my eyes I could not feel For the fear in my life From across the great divide In the distance i saw a light John Baptist Walking to me with the Maker My body is bent and broken By long and dangerous sleep I can work the fields of Abraham And turn my head away I'm not a stranger In the hands of the Maker Brother John, Have you seen the homeless daughters Standing there with broken wings? I have seen the flaming swords There over East of Eden Burning in the eyes of the Maker Oh river, rise from your sleep....

Fool To ThinkAll I could hope is to have you To have you walking with me Laughing so in love we two Almost drunkenly I did imbibe of this Fantasy of you Only Was I a fool to think The way you looked at me I swear you did But you looked away to quick Was I a fool Was I a fool to think That you would take me home As if I was yours Was I a fool to think at all I've grown tired of love You are the trouble with me I watch you walk right by I smile you do not notice me Treat me recklessly All you do is toss me pennies Ohhhhhh But the silence in me is screaming Won't you come and get me Was I a fool to think They way you looked at me I swear you did But you looked away to quick Was I a fool Was I a fool to think That you would take me home As if I was yours Was I a fool to think at all Was I a fool to think They way you looked at me I swear you did But you looked away to quick Was I a fool Was I a fool to think That you would take me home As if I was yours Was I a fool to think at all You make a mess of me I'd dance a thousand steps for you If you say yes to me I'll be whatever gets you through You make a mess of me Was I a fool I'd dance a thousand steps for you Was I a fool Was I a fool to think Am I a fool Am I a fool for you
Sleep To Dream HerWish I could bend my love to hate her Wish I could be her creator To twist her arms now She stares up at the stars when The stars fell from her hair then I bent down to collect them And then she was gone Oh I sleep just to dream her I beg the night just to see her That my only love should be her Just to lie in her arms Oh I came there to find out Find out she made up her mind ohhhh My arms are all tied up To me she was blind Mmmm this space between us Where wingless dreams fall earless Will you not bear me witness With your back to me now It seems so unnerving Yet still somehow deserving That she could hold my heart so tightly And still not see me here Oh I sleep just to dream her Beg the night just to see her That my only love should be her Just to lie in her arms I know I'll miss her later I wish I could bend my love to hate her Wish I could be her creator To be the light in her eyes
