i'm sick of dour faces staring at me from the tv tower
i want roses in my garden bower, dig?
- The doors
Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when
you're tryin' to be so quiet?
And Louise holds a handful of rain,
temptin' you to defy it
The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face
Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
But Mona Lisa musta had the highway blues
You can tell by the way she smiles
The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain
- Dylan, Visions of Johanna
You lose yourself, you reappear
You suddenly find you got nothing to fear
Alone you stand with nobody near
When a trembling distant voice, unclear
Startles your sleeping ears to hear
That somebody thinks
They really found you.
While money doesn't talk, it swears
Obscenity, who really cares
Propaganda, all is phony.
And if my thought-dreams could be seen
They'd probably put my head in a guillotine
But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only.
- Dylan, Its alright ma
So now I'm goin' back again,I
got to get to her somehow.
All the people we used to know
They're an illusion to me now.
Some are mathematicians
Some are carpenter's wives.
Don't know how it all got started,
I don't know what they're doin' with their lives.
But me, I'm still on the road
Headin' for another joint
We always did feel the same,
We just saw it from a different point of view,
Tangled up in blue.
- Dylan, Tangled up in blue
