Songtexte I and I (Live) - Bob Dylan

Been so long since a strange woman has slept in my bed
Look how sweet she sleeps, how free must be her dreams
In another lifetime, she must have owned the world
Or been faithfully wed
To some righteous king who wrote psalms beside moonlight streams

I and I
In creation where one's nature neither honors nor forgives
I and I
One said to the other, no man sees my face and lives

I think I'll go out and go for a walk
Not much happenin' here, nothin' ever does
If she wakes up now, you know she'll just want me to talk
I got nothin' to say, 'specially about whatever was

I and I
In creation where one's nature neither honors nor forgives
I and I
One said to the other, no man sees my face and lives

Outside, two men on the train tracks and nobody in sight
And they're waiting for spring to come, smoking down the track
The world could come to an end tonight, but that's alright
She should still be there sleepin' when I get back

I and I
In creation where one's nature neither honors nor forgives
I and I
One said to the other, no man sees my face and lives

Noontime, and I'm still on the road on the darkest part
Into the narrow lanes, I can't stumble or stay put
Someone else is speakin' with my mouth, but I'm listening only to my heart
I've made shoes for everyone, even you, while I still go barefoot

I and I
In creation where one's nature neither honors nor forgives
I and I
One said to the other, no man sees my face and lives

One, two, three
