Can't Escape from You - Bob Dylan

Oh, the evening train is rolling

All along the homeward way

All my hopes are over the horizon

All my dreams have gone away

The hillside darkly shaded

Stars falling from above

All the joys of earth have faded

The night's untouched, my love

I'll be here 'til tomorrow

Beneath a shroud of gray

I pretend I'm free of sorrow

My heart is miles away

The dead bells are ringing

My train is overdue

To your memory I'm clinging

I can't escape from you

Well, I hear the sound of thunder

Roaring loud and long

Sometimes you got to wonder

God knows I've done no wrong

How you've wasted all your power

You threw out the Christmas pie

Now you're withering like a flower

You'll play the fool and die

I'm neither sad nor sorry

I'm all dressed up in black

I fought for fame and glory

And you tried to break my back

In the far off sweet forever

The sunshine peeking through

We should've walked together

I can't escape from you

I cannot grasp the shadows

That gather near the door

Rainfall around my window

I wish I'd seen you more

The path is ever winding

The stars they never age

The morning light is blinding

All the world's a stage

Should be the time of gladness

Happy faces everywhere

The mystery of madness

Is propagating in the air

I don't like the city

Not like some folks do

Isn't it a pity

I can't escape from you?

We ploughed the fields of heaven

Right down to the end

I hope I can be forgiven

If any words of mine offend

All our days were splendid

They were simple, they were plain

It never should have ended

I should've kissed you in the rain

I've been thinking things all over

All the moments full of grace

The primrose and the clover

Your ever-changing face

Can't help looking at you

You made love with god knows who

Never found a gal to match you

I can't escape from you
