paroles de chanson When You Awake - Remastered - Bob Dylan

Ollie told me that I'm a fool
So I walked on down the road a mile
Then went to the house that brings a smile
Sat upon my grandpa's knee, and what do you think he said to me?
When you awake you will remember everything
You will be hanging' on a string
When you believe, you will relieve the only soul
That you were born with to grow old and never know
Ollie, you showed me the fork in the road
You said that, "You can take to the left or go straight to the right
Save your days and use your nights
Be careful where you step, and watch what do you eat
Sleep with the light on and you got it beat"
When you awake you will remember everything
You will be hanging' on a string, yeah
When you believe, you will relieve the only soul
That you were born with to grow old and never know
Ollie told me it's a mean old world
The street don't greet you, yes, it's true
But what am I supposed to do?
Read the writing on the walls
I heard it when I was very small
When you awake you will remember everything
You will be hanging' on a string, yeah
When you believe, you will relieve the only soul
That you were born with to grow old and never know, oh, no, no
I washed my hands in lye water
Got a date with the Captain's daughter
You can go and tell your brother
We sure gonna love one another
Oh, it's okay, it's alright
Yeah, yeah
You may be right and you might be wrong
No, I won't worry all night long
Snow's gonna come and the frost gonna bite
My old car froze up last night
Ain't no reason to hang my head
So I could wake up in the morning' dead
No, no, no
And if I thought it would do any good
I'd stand on the rock where Moses stood
