Shes Your Lover Now — текст песни (Bob Dylan)

The pawnbroker roared

Also, so, so did the landlord

The scene was so crazy, wasnt it?

Both were so glad

To watch me destroy what I had

Pain sure brings out the best in people, doesnt it?

Why didnt you just leave me if you didnt want to stay?

Whyd you have to treat me so bad?

Did it have to be that way?

Now you stand here expectin me to remember somethin you forgot to say

Yes, and you, I see youre still with her, well

Thats fine cause shes comin on so strange, cant you tell?

Somebody had better explain

Shes got her iron chain

Id do it, but i, I just cant remember how

You talk to her

Shes your lover now.



I already assumed

That were in the felony room

But I aint a judge, you dont have to be nice to me

But please tell that

To your friend in the cowboy hat

You know he keeps on sayin evrythin twice to me

You know I was straight with you

You know Ive never tried to change you in any way

You know if you didnt want to be with me

That you could . . . didnt have to stay.

Now you stand here sayin you forgive and forget. honey, what can I say?

Yes, you, you just sit around and ask for ashtrays, cant you reach?

I see you kiss her on the cheek evrytime she gives a speech

With her picture books of the pyramid

And her postcards of billy the kid

(why must everybody bow? )

You better talk to her bout it

Youre her lover now.



Oh, evrybody that cares

Is goin up the castle stairs

But Im not up in your castle, honey

Its true, I just cant recall

San francisco at all

I cant even remember el paso, uh, honey

You never had to be faithful

I didnt want you to grieve

Oh, why was it so hard for you

If you didnt want to be with me, just to leave?

Now you stand here while your fingers goin up my sleeve

An you, just what do you do anyway? aint there nothin you can say?

Shell be standin on the bar soon

With a fish head an a harpoon

An a fake beard plastered on her brow

Youd better do somethin quick

Shes your lover now.
