And the day is getting dark.
As the night comes in a-falling,
The dogs'll lose their bark
And the silent night will shatter
From the sounds inside my mind,
For I'm one to many mornings
And a thousand miles behind.

As I turn my head back to the room
Where my love and I have laid....

You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's all right.

Bob Dylan
Dead man, dead man
When will you arise?
Cobwebs in your mind
Dust upon your eyes

Bob Dylan
Oh, the inmates and the prisoners I found they were my kind And it was there inside the bars I found my peace of mind But the jails they were too crowded Institutions overflowed So they turned me loose to walk upon Life's hurried tangled road

Bob Dylan
Loneliness Got a mind of its own The more people around The more you feel alone
