[00:02.07] Visions of johanna
[00:04.07] Bob Dylan
[00:04.82]
[00:11.39] Ain't it just like the night to play tricks when you're tryin' to be so quiet?
[00:17.39]
[00:21.83] We sit here stranded, though we're all doin' our best to deny it
[00:27.77]
[00:31.95] And Louise holds a handful of rain, temptin' you to defy it
[00:38.45]
[00:42.32] Lights flicker from the opposite loft
[00:46.19]
[00:48.38] In this room the heat pipes just cough
[00:51.26]
[00:53.94] The country music station plays soft
[00:56.20]
[00:57.82] But there's nothing, really nothing to turn off
[01:00.69]
[01:07.82] Just Louise and her lover so entwined
[01:13.57]
[01:18.26] And these visions of Johanna that conquer my mind
[01:26.51]
[01:39.27] In the empty lot where the ladies play blindman's bluff with the key chain
[01:45.46]
[01:49.64] And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades out on the "D" train
[01:55.54]
[01:59.36] We can hear the night watchman click his flashlight
[02:02.61]
[02:03.49] Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane
[02:06.61]
[02:09.29] Louise, she's all right, she's just near
[02:12.11]
[02:14.80] She's delicate and seems like the mirror
[02:17.23]
[02:19.49] But she just makes it all too concise and too clear
[02:22.29]
[02:23.42] That Johanna's not here
[02:24.61]
[02:32.24] The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face
[02:38.80]
[02:42.92] Where these visions of Johanna have now taken my place
[02:51.61]
[03:01.42] Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
[03:04.86]
[03:09.74] He brags of his misery, he likes to live dangerously
[03:13.73]
[03:18.05] And when bringing her name up
[03:20.29]
[03:20.92] He speaks of a farewell kiss to me
[03:23.42]
[03:27.42] He's sure got a lotta gall to be so useless and all
[03:34.23]
[03:37.17] Muttering small talk at the wall while I'm in the hall
[03:42.73]
[03:46.29] How can I explain?
[03:48.98]
[03:50.67] Oh, it's so hard to get on
[03:53.36]
[03:57.92] And these visions of Johanna, they kept me up past the dawn
[04:05.80]
[04:18.05] Inside the museums, Infinity goes up on trial
[04:22.29]
[04:25.54] Voices echo this is what salvation must be like after a while
[04:30.85]
[04:35.79] But Mona Lisa must had the highway blues
[04:37.92]
[04:39.61] You can tell by the way she smiles
[04:41.92]
[04:45.79] See the primitive wallflower freeze
[04:47.98]
[04:51.36] When the jelly-faced women all sneeze
[04:53.80]
[04:56.73] Hear the one with the mustache say, "Jeeze
[04:58.67]
[05:00.35] I can't find my knees"
[05:01.67]
[05:06.35] Oh, jewels and binoculars hang from the head of the mule
[05:11.16]
[05:16.85] But these visions of Johanna, they make it all seem so cruel
[05:23.55]
[05:35.75] The peddler now speaks to the countess who's pretending to care for him
[05:42.37]
[05:43.68] Sayin', "Name me someone that's not a parasite and I'll go out and say a prayer for him"
[05:50.06]
[05:53.88] But like Louise always says
[05:56.24] "Ya can't look at much, can ya man?"
[05:57.93]
[06:00.62] As she, herself, prepares for him
[06:01.87]
[06:03.81] And Madonna, she still has not showed
[06:06.06]
[06:09.18] We see this empty cage now corrode
[06:14.31] Where her cape of the stage once had flowed
[06:16.68]
[06:18.69] The fiddler, he now steps to the road
[06:21.24]
[06:23.25] He writes ev'rything's been returned which was owed
[06:26.63]
[06:28.49] On the back of the fish truck that loads
[06:31.56]
[06:32.93] While my conscience explodes
[06:34.44]
[06:38.74] The harmonicas play the skeleton keys and the rain
[06:44.30]
[06:49.24] And these visions of Johanna are now all that remain
