Does anybody really know what time it is? I'm in PST, so earlier here. But, we can end tonight with this personal favorite if you want and pick up it up again later sometime when the sun is shining (unless someone else picks it up while we're out)... Early one mornin the sun was shinin I was layin in bed Wondrin if she'd changed at all If her hair was still red Her folks they said our lives together Sure was gonna be rough They never did like Mama's homemade dress Papa's bank book wasn't big enough And I was standin'on the side of the road Rain fallin on my shoes Heading out for the east coast Lord knows I've paid some dues Gettin' through Tangled up in blue She was married when we first met Soon to be divorced I helped her out of a jam i guess But I used a little too much force We drove that car as far as we could Abandoned it out west Split up on a dark sad night Both agreeing it was best She turned around to look at me As I was walkin' away I heard her say over my shoulder We'll meet again some day On the avenue Tangled up in blue I had a job in the great north woods Working as a cook for a spell But I never did like it all that much And one day the axe just fell So I drifted down to New Orleans Where I happened to be employed Workin for a while on a fishin boat Right outside of Delacroix But all the while I was alone The past was close behind I seen a lot of women But she never escaped my mind And i just grew Tangled up in blue She was workin in a topless place And I stopped in for a beer I just kept lookin at the side of her face In the spotlight so clear And later on as the crowd thinned out I's just about to do the same She was standing there in back of my chair Said to me, Don't I know your name? I muttered somethin under my breat She studied the lines on my face I must admit I felt a little uneasy When she bent down to tie the laces Of my shoe Tangled up in blue She lit a burner on the stove And offered me a pipe I thought you'd never say hello, she said You look like the silent type Then she opened up a book of poems And handed it to me Written by an Italian poet From the 13th century And everyone of them words rang true And glowed like burnin' coal Pourin off of every page Like it was written in my soul From me to you Tangled up in blue I lived with them on Montague Street In a basement down the stairs There was music in the cafes at night And revolution in the air Then he started into dealing with slaves And something inside of him died She had to sell everything she owned And froze up inside And when finally the bottom fell out I became withdrawn The only thing I knew how to do Was to keep on keepin on Like a bird that flew Tangled up in blue So now I'm goin back again I got to get to her somehow All the people we used to know They're an illusion to me now Some are mathetmaticians Some are carpenters' wives Don't know how it all got started I don't know what they're doin with their lives But me, I'm still on the road Headin' for another joint We always did feel the same We just saw it from a different point Of view Tangled up in blue By: Mr. Bob Dylan (these lyrics are too good to snip) RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - snoopdog - 04-26-2012 This thread makes me feel 44 years old...well..

This ain't no make believe I ain't foolin around this time You can believe what you want to believe It's a sin the way we've wasted our time Make me feel like I wanna feel Baby tear this pain from my heart Make me feel like I wanna feel Make me feel like I did in the start Maybe it's a change of plan Now that your dreams have left me behind Or is it another man Who didn't care that you were mine Baby this could be our last chance Now you're actin like it's no big deal Make me feel like I wanna feel Make me feel like I did in the start I can hear, I can hear, I can hear The radio playin' your favorite song I don't care, I don't care, I don't care I know that something had to go wrong Baby don't you walk away Stay here and listen to my plans You can leave, make it another day Stay tonight and hold me in your hands By: John Mellencamp RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - cladking - 05-02-2012 Lullaby Of London By Shane MacGowan (1988) (Pogues) As I walked down by the riverside One evening in the spring Heard a long gone song From days gone by Blown in on the great North wind Though there is no lonesome corncrake's cry Or sorrow and delight You can hear the cars And the shouts from bars And the laughter and the fights May the ghosts that howled Round the house at night Never keep you from your sleep May they all sleep tight Down in hell tonight Or where ever they may be As I walked on with a heavy heart Then a stone danced on the tide And the song went on Though the lights were gone And the North wind gently sighed And an evening breeze coming from the East That kissed the riverside So I pray now child that you sleep tonight When you hear this lullaby May the wind that blows from haunted graves Never bring you misery May the angels bright Watch you tonight And keep you while you sleep RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - HairOfTheDog - 05-02-2012 (05-02-2012, 12:05 AM)cladking Wrote: And the North wind gently sighed Nice lyrics, Clad. That old North Wind is haunting, for sure. Something from Charley Pride: Well once I met a pretty little girl and she was fair to see I fell in love with a pretty little girl she fell in love with me I kissed her on her dimpled chin while stars in heaven did play But along come a howl in that old north wind and carried her away North wind north wind bring my baby back again North wind where did she go nobody but you will ever know It seems I hear her calling me and when I answer back I find it's just that old north wind a whistlin' round my shack Each night before I go to sleep down on my knees I pray That the old north wind come a howlin' by and carry me away North wind north wind... RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - HairOfTheDog - 06-25-2012 Maggot. Hello, it's me, I've thought about us for a long, long time Maybe I think too much but something's wrong there's something here that doesn't last too long. Maybe I shouldn't think of you as mine. Seeing you, or seeing anything as much as I do you, I take for granted that you're always there, I take for granted that you just don't care. Sometimes I can't help seeing all the way through. Haha. You're up, when you're ready... RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - Midwest Spy - 06-25-2012 Hi HotD. You know I did 'Hello, it's me' back on page 10? I have copyrighted this one. How dare you! You may be able to avoid punishment by whispering sweetly in my ear...

Time can never mend The careless whispers, of a good friend To the heart and mind, ignorance is kind There's no comfort in the truth Pain is all you'll find (Should've known better, yeah) I feel so unsure As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor As the music dies, something in your eyes Calls to mind a silver screen And all its sad good-byes Chorus: I'm never gonna dance again Guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know your not a fool Should've known better than to cheat a friend And waste the chance that I'd been given So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you Time can never mend The careless whispers of a good friend To the heart and mind Ignorance is kind There's no comfort in the truth Pain is all you'll find RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - Midwest Spy - 06-26-2012 You knew I liked that one, huh? A simpler time back in 1984/1985. Before I realized that men wanted to have sex with other men (George Michael). That song was voted the number one song of the 1980's in Britain.

A little light shining through the window lets me know everything is alright. Summer Breeze makes me feel fine blowin through the jasmine in my mind.'

You might be losing it. "Losing It" is a great track off of Rush's 82 release, Signals. RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - Midwest Spy - 12-04-2012 'Sundown' was referenced by someone? No shit. One more ode to Rush's Canadian brother: '.... Just like an old-time movie, bout a ghost from a wishin' well. In a castle dark, or a fortress strong, with chains upon my feet... You know that ghost is me. And I won't ever be set free as long as I'm a ghost that you can't see...' First song I ever sang at karaoke.

Strike another match, go start anew and it's all over now, Baby Blue. - A somewhat famous Minnesotan RE: DOES ANYBODY REALLY KNOW WHAT TIME IT IS? - Midwest Spy - 12-04-2012 I almost ended up getting stationed in Iceland (from Norway) but passed on it. While in Norway, I did meet one Icelandic woman in 1987 when I was interviewing the Canadian group Glass Tiger. She was drop dead gorgeous! Which leads me to my point. I really like Of Monsters and Men. They're from Iceland. Might be their first musical export. 'Little Talks' is excellent. HotD, maybe you could post the YouTube video for me? TIA!
