Radio Paradise (mobile)

Shadows are falling and I've been here all day
It's too hot to sleep, time is running away
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't 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 has gone 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 writing 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've been to London and I've been to gay Paris
I've followed the river and I got to the sea
I've been down on the bottom of a whirlpool of lies
I ain't looking 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 moving, but I'm standing still
Every nerve in my body is so vacant and numb
I can't even remember what it was I came here to get away from
Don't even hear a murmur of a prayer
It's not dark yet, but it's getting there

lshinkawa Jun 11, 2012 - 19:23	Call me a clueless rube, if you will, but it 's difficult to appreciate the depth, soul and intelligence of Bob Dylan's lyrics and music with that horrendously painful voice. [ Reply ]
TerryS Jun 11, 2012 - 19:21	Much as I like Bob Dylan, his voice does remind me of a 1970 Honda Dream 79cc motorcycle exhaust. [ Reply ]

Grammarcop Apr 09, 2012 - 06:48	Boy, I wonder if Afie Jurvanen listened to this a lot before he wrote "Lost In The Light." [ Reply ]
rez Mar 08, 2012 - 14:36	I'm not normally a Bob fan but once or twice every decade he comes up with a pearler. Not quite convinced about the "Gay Paree" line though. [ Reply ]
Patti Mar 08, 2012 - 14:32	I love-love-love his poetry; just wish other people would sing them as I am not a fan of his voice. Though he does do well in getting the impression of this words thru. [ Reply ]
