I’ll just say fare thee well ...

Well there ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
even you don't know by now
An’ it ain’t no use to sit and wonder why, babe
and I'll never do somehow
When your rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I’ll be gone
You’re the reason I’m trav’lin’ on
Don’t think twice, it’s all right

and it ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe
the light I never knowed
An’ it ain’t no use in turnin’ on your light, babe
I’m on the dark side of the road
But I wish there was somethin’ you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin’ anyway
but don’t think twice, it’s all right

So it ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal
Like you never done before
and it ain’t no use in callin’ out my name, gal
I can’t hear you anymore
I’m a-thinkin’ and a-wond’rin’ all the way down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I’m told
I give her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

so long, honey babe...
Where I’m bound, I can’t tell
goodbye’s too good a word, gal
So I’ll just say fare thee well
I ain’t sayin’ you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don’t mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don’t think twice, it’s all right

In dreams you're mine all of the time ...

"He was now singing his compositions in three or four octaves that made you want to drive your car over a cliff. He sang like a professional criminal... His voice could jar a corpse, always leave you muttering to yourself something like, 'Man, I don't believe it'"

Bob Dylan

When I read this line in Dylan's Chronicles I underlined it with my pencil...

I remembered Roy's voice ..

I could drive my car over a cliff while this song is playing in the radio...

Roy said this song came to him while sleeping, he dreamed that the radio was announcing a new Elvis song .. then he woke up and wrote it..

The images in the video are from David Lynch's movie Blue Velvet, which I hadn't seen yet..

The producer was Dino de Laurentiis who passed away last week..

Little homage here to all of them..



In Dreams

A candy-colored clown they call the Sandman
Tiptoes to my room every night
Just to sprinkle stardust and to whisper
"Go to sleep, everything is all right"

I close my eyes, then I drift away
Into the magic night, I softly say
A silent prayer like dreamers do
Then I fall asleep to dream my dreams of you

In dreams I walk with you
In dreams I talk to you
In dreams you're mine all of the time
We're together in dreams, in dreams

But just before the dawn
I awake and find you gone
I can't help it, I can't help it, if I cry
I remember that you said goodbye

It's too bad that all these things
Can only happen in my dreams
Only in dreams
In beautiful dreams
