Bob Dylan - Restless Farewell Lyrics
Oh all the money that in my whole life I did spend,Be it mine right or wrongfully,I let it slip gladly past the hands of my friendsTo tie up the time most forcefully.But the bottles are done,Weve killed each oneAnd the tables full and overflowed.And the corner signSays its closing time,So Ill bid farewell and be down the road.Oh evry girl that ever lve touched,I did not do it harmfully.And evry girl that ever Ive hurt,I did not do it knowinly.But to remain as friends and make amendsYou need the time and stay behind.And since my feet are now fastAnd point away from the past,Ill bid farewell and be down the line.Oh evry foe that ever I faced,The cause was there before we came.And evry cause that ever I fought,I fought it full without regret or shame.But the dark does dieAs the curtain is drawn and somebodys eyesMust meet the dawn.And if I see the dayId only have to stay,So Ill bid farewell in the night and be gone.Oh, evry thought thats strung a knot in my mind,I might go insane if it couldnt be sprung.But its not to stand ***** under unknowin eyes,Its for myself and my friends my stories are sung.But the time aint tall,Yet on time you depend and no word is possessedBy no special friend.And though the line is cut,It aint quite the end,Ill just bid farewell till we meet again.Oh a false clock tries to tick out my timeTo disgrace, distract, and bother me.And the dirt of gossip blows into my face,And the dust of rumors covers me.But if the arrow is straightAnd the point is slick,It can pierce through dust no matter how thick.So Ill make my standAnd remain as I amAnd bid farewell and not give a damn.
