《Tangled up in Blue》歌词

[00:00:08] Title: Tangled Up In Blue

[00:00:10] Early one mornin' the sun was shinin'

[00:00:13] I was layin' in bed

[00:00:15] Wond'rin' if she'd changed at all

[00:00:18] If her hair was still red

[00:00:20] Her folks they said our lives together

[00:00:23] Sure was gonna be rough

[00:00:25] They never did like mama's homemade dress

[00:00:27] Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough

[00:00:30] And i was standin' on the side of the road

[00:00:33] Rain fallin' on my shoes

[00:00:35] Heading out for the east coast

[00:00:37] Lord knows i've paid some dues gettin' through

[00:00:43] Tangled up in blue

[00:00:54] She was married when we first met

[00:00:56] Soon to be divorced

[00:00:59] I helped her out of a jam i guess

[00:01:01] But i used a little too much force

[00:01:03] We drove that car as far as we could

[00:01:06] Abandoned it out west

[00:01:08] Split up on a dark sad night

[00:01:11] Both agreeing it was best

[00:01:13] She turned around to look at me

[00:01:16] As i was walkin' away

[00:01:18] I heard her say over my shoulder

[00:01:20] We'll meet again some day on the avenue

[00:01:26] Tangled up in blue

[00:01:37] I had a job in the great north woods

[00:01:39] Working as a cook for a spell

[00:01:42] But i never did like it all that much

[00:01:44] And one day the ax just fell

[00:01:46] So i drifted down to new orleans

[00:01:49] Where i was lucky just to be employed

[00:01:51] Workin' for a while on a fishin' boat

[00:01:54] Right outside of delacroix

[00:01:56] But all the while i was alone

[00:01:58] The past was close behind

[00:02:01] I seen a lot of women

[00:02:03] But she never escaped my mind and i just grew

[00:02:08] Tangled up in blue

[00:02:19] She was workin' in a topless place

[00:02:21] And i stopped in for a beer

[00:02:24] I just kept lookin' at the side of her face

[00:02:26] In the spotlight so clear

[00:02:29] And later on as the crowd thinned out

[00:02:31] I's just about to do the same

[00:02:33] She was standing there in back of my chair

[00:02:36] Said to me don't i know your name I muttered somethin' underneath my breath

[00:02:40] She studied the lines on my face

[00:02:43] I must admit i felt a little uneasy

[00:02:46] When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe

[00:02:50] Tangled up in blue

[00:03:02] She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe

[00:03:06] \i thought you'd never say hello \ she said

[00:03:09] \you look like the silent type \

[00:03:11] Then she opened up a book of poems

[00:03:13] And handed it to me

[00:03:16] Written by an italian poet

[00:03:18] From the thirteenth century

[00:03:20] And every one of them words rang true

[00:03:22] And glowed like burnin' coal

[00:03:25] Pourin' off of every page

[00:03:27] Like it was written in my soul from me to you

[00:03:32] Tangled up in blue

[00:03:43] I lived with them on montague street

[00:03:45] In a basement down the stairs

[00:03:47] There was music in the cafes at night

[00:03:50] And revolution in the air

[00:03:52] Then he started into dealing with slaves

[00:03:55] And something inside of him died

[00:03:57] She had to sell everything she owned

[00:03:59] And froze up inside

[00:04:02] And when finally the bottom fell out

[00:04:04] I became withdrawn

[00:04:06] The only thing i knew how to do

[00:04:08] Was to keep on keepin' on like a bird that flew

[00:04:13] Tangled up in blue

[00:04:24] So now i'm goin' back again

[00:04:26] I got to get to her somehow

[00:04:29] All the people we used to know

[00:04:31] They're an illusion to me now

[00:04:33] Some are mathematicians

[00:04:34] Some are carpenter's wives

[00:04:38] Don't know how it all got started

[00:04:40] I don't know what they're doin' with their lives

[00:04:42] But me i'm still on the road

[00:04:45] Headin' for another joint

[00:04:47] We always did feel the same

[00:04:49] We just saw it from a different point of view

[00:04:54] Tangled up in blue
