When The Night Comes Falling from The Sky Lyrics

Bob Dylan

Look out across the fields, see me returnin' Smoke is in your eyes, you draw a smile From the fireplace where my letters to you are burning You've had time to think about it for a while
Well, I've walked two hundred miles, look me over It's the end of the chase and the moon is high It won't matter who loves who You love me or I love you
When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' from the sky
I can see through your walls and I know you're hurting Sorrow covers you up like a cape Only yesterday I know that you've been flirting With disaster you somehow managed to escape
Well, I can't provide for you no easy answers Who are you that I should have to lie? You'll know all about it, love It'll fit you like a glove
When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' from the sky
I can hear your tremblin' heart beat like a river You must have been protecting someone, last time I called I've never asked you for nothin' that you couldn't deliver I've never asked you to set yourself up for a fall
I saw thousands who could have overcome the darkness For the love of a lousy buck, I've watched them die Stick around, baby, we're not through Don't look for me, I'll see you
When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' from the sky
In your teardrops, I can see my own reflection It was on the northern border of Texas where I crossed the line I don't wanna be a fool starving for affection I don't wanna drown in someone else's wine
For all eternity I think I will remember That icy wind that's howlin' in your eye You will seek me and you'll find me In the wasteland of your mind
When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' from the sky
Well, I sent you my feelings in a letter When you were gamblin' for support This time tomorrow I'll know you better When my memory is not so short
This time I'm askin' for freedom Freedom from a world which you deny And you'll give it to me now I'll take it anyhow
When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' When the night comes fallin' from the sky
