Born in Time (version #2) Songtext
von Bob Dylan

In the lonely night
In the smokin′ stardust of a pale blue light
You're standin′ there in black and white
Where we were made of dreams

I walk alone through the shakin' street
Listenin' to my heartbeat
In the record-breaking heat
Where we were born in time

Just, when I thought, you were gone, you came back
Just, when I knew it was for certain


You were high, you were low
You were so, easy to know
Oh, baby, now is time to raise the curtain
I′ve been hurting

Upon the rising curve
Where the ways of nature will test every nerve
Took me in and I got what I deserved
Where we were born in the time

Just, when I knew, who to thank, you went blank
Just, when the hope of fires stops smokin′

You were snow, you were rain
You were striped, you were plain
Oh, babe, truer words, have not been spoken
Or broken


In the hills of mystery
In the foggy web of destiny
You're still so deep inside of me
Where we were born in time
