Shadows are Falling

What is our favourite Bob Dylan song of all time?

That's the Question!

Looking through the window I am thinking about Bob Dylan song, Not dark yet. Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain. It is for me a brilliant thought not an obvious thought. My opinion is that Dylan is one of the greatest songwriter and musician. His extraordinary voice is just the greatest for every song he writes. At the moment, Not dark yet, is my favourite Bob Dylan song.

 

Here is the brilliant lyric by Bob Dylan:

 

Not dark yet.

 

Shadows are falling and I been here all day

It's too hot to sleep and time is running away

Feel like my soul has turned into steel

I've still got the scars that the sun didn't let me heal

 

There's not even room enough to be anywhere

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

Well my sense of humanity is going down the drain

Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain

 

She wrote me a letter and she wrote it so kind

She put down in writin' what was in her mind

I just don't see why I should even care

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

 

Well I been to London and I been to gay Paree

I followed the river and I got to the sea

I've been down to the bottom of a whirlpool of lies

I ain't lookin' for nothin' in anyone's eyes

 

Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

 

I was born here and I'll die here, against my will

I know it looks like I'm movin' but I'm standin' still

 

Every nerve in my body is so naked and numb

I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from

Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer

It's not dark yet, but it's getting there
