Spirit On The Water Lyrics - Modern Times - Bob Dylan

Spirit on the water 

Darkness on the face of the deep 

I keep thinkin' about you, baby 

And I can't hardly sleep 

I'm travelin' by land 

Travelin' through the dawn of day 

You're always on my mind 

I can't stay away 

I'd forgotten about you 

Then you turned up again 

I always knew 

We were meant to be more than friend 

When you're near 

It's just as plain as it can be 

I'm wild about you, gal 

You ought to be a fool about me

Modern Love: The Best Top 40 Love Songs For Valentine's Day 

Can't explain 

The sources of this hidden pain 

You burned your way into my heart 

You got the key to my brain 

I've been tramplin' through mud 

Prayin' to the powers above 

I'm sweatin' blood 

You got a face that begs for love 

Life without you 

Doesn't mean a thing to me 

If I can't have you 

I'll throw my love into the deep blue sea 

Sometimes I wonder 

Why you can't treat me right? 

You do good all day 

And then you do wrong all night 

Photos 

When you're with me 

I'm a thousand times happier than I could ever say 

What does it matter? 

Or what price I pay? 

They brag about your sugar 

Brag about it all over town 

Put some sugar in my bowl 

I feel like layin' down 

I'm as pale as a ghost 

Holdin' a blossom on a stem 

You ever seen a ghost? No 

But you have heard of them 

I see you there 

I'm blinded by the colors I see 

I take good care 

Of what belongs to me 

I hear your name 

Ringin' up and down the line 

I'm sayin' it plain 

These ties are strong enough to bind 

Now your sweet voice 

Calls out from some old familiar shrine 

I got no choice 

Can't believe these things would ever fade from your mind 

I could live forever 

With you perfectly 

You don't ever 

Have to make a fuss over me 

From East to West 

Ever since the world began 

I only mean it for the best 

I want to be with you any way I can 

I've been in a brawl 

Now I'm feeling the wall 

I'm going 'way, baby 

I won't be back 'til fall 

High on the hill 

You can carry all my thoughts with you 

You've numbed my will 

This love could tear me in two 

I wanna be with you in paradise 

And it seems so unfair 

I can't go to paradise, no more 

I killed a man back there 

You think, I'm over the hill 

Think, I'm past my prime 

Let me see what you got 

We can have a whoppin' good time
