shelter from the storm (live) - bob dylan lyrics
i was in another lifetime one of toil and blood
blackness was a virtue and the road was full of mud
i came in from the wilderness a creature void of form
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
if i p-ss this way again you can rest -ssured
i’ll always do my best for her on that i give my word
in a world of steel-eyed death and men who are fighting to be warm
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
not a word was spoke between us there was little risk involved
everything up to that point had been left unresolved
try imagining a place where it’s always safe and warm
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
i was burned out from exhaustion i was buried in the hail
poisoned in the bushes, blown out on the trail
hunted like a crocodile ravaged in the corn
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
suddenly i turned around, she was standing there
with silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair
she walked up to me so gracefully and she took my crown of th-rns
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
well, i’ve heard newborn babies wailing like a mourning dove
and old men with broken teeth stranded without love
do i understand your question man, is it hopeless and forlorn
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount
nothing really matters much it’s doom alone that counts
and the one-eyed undertaker he blows a futile h-rn
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
in a little hilltop village they gambled for my clothes
i offered for salvation and they gave me a lethal dose
i offered up my innocence and got repaid with scorn
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
i’m living in a foreign country but i’m bound to cross the line
beauty walks a razor’s edge someday i’ll make it mine
if i could only turn back the clock to when god and her were born
“come in”, she said “i’ll give you shelter from the storm”
