Bob Dylan - Restless Farewell lyrics

Be it mine right or wrongfully

I let it slip gladly to my friends

To tie up the time most forcefully

But the bottles are done

We've killed each one

And the table's full and overflowed

And the corner sign

Says it's closing time

So I'll bid farewell and be down the road.

Oh ev'ry girl that ever I've touched

I did not do it harmfully

And ev'ry girl that even I've hurt

I did not do it knowin'ly

But to remain as friends we need the time

And make demands and stay behind

And since my feet are now fast

And point away from the past

I'll bid farewell and be down the line.

Oh ev'ry foe that ever I faced

The cause was there before we came

And ev'ry cause that ever I fought

I fought it full without regret or shame

But the dark does die

As the curtain is drawn and somebody's eyes

Must meet the dawnBob Dylan - Restless Farewell - http://motolyrics.com/bob-dylan/restless-farewell-lyrics.html

And if I see the day

I'd only have to stay

So I'll bid farewell in the night and be gone.

Oh ev'ry thought that's strung a knot in my mind

I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung

But it's not to stand naked under unknowin' eyes

It's for myself and my friends my stories are sung

But the time ain't tall

Yet on time you depend and no word is possessed

By no special friend

And though the line is cut

It ain't quite the end

I'll just bid farewell till we meet again.

Oh a false clock tries to tick out my time

To disgrace, distract, and bother me

And the dirt of gossip blows into my face

And the dust of rumors covers me

But if the arrow is straight

And the point is slick

It can pierce through dust no matter how thick

So I'll make my stand

And remain as I am

And bid farewell and not give a damn.
