Youre Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go
(Bob Dylan)
Ive seen love go by my door
Its never been this close before
Never been so easy or so slow
Ive been shooting in the dark too long
When something not right its wrong
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
Dragon clouds so high above
Ive only known careless love
Its always hit me from below
This time around its more correct
Right on target so direct
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
Purple clover Queen Anne lace
Crimson hair across your face
You could make me cry if you dont know
Cant remember what I was thinking of
You might be spoiling me too much love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
Flowers on the hillside blooming crazy
Crickets talking back and forth in rhyme
Blue river running slow and lazy
I could stay with you forever
And never realize the time.
Situations have ended sad
Relationship have all been bad
Mineve been like Verlaines and Rimbaud
But theres no way I can compare
All those scenes to this affair
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
Yer gonna make me wonder what Im doing
Staying far behind without you
Yer gonna make me wonder what Im saying
Yer gonna make me give myself a good talking to.
Ill look for you in old Honolulu
San Francisco, Ashtabula
Yer gonna have to leave me now I know
But Ill see you in the sky above
In the tall grass in the ones I love
Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
