Every Grain of Sand - Bob Dylan |
| [00:18.19] |
In the time of my confession, |
| [00:21.31] |
|
| [00:22.43] |
in the hour of my deepest need |
| [00:25.36] |
|
| [00:26.80] |
When the pool of tears beneath |
| [00:29.79] |
my feet flood every newborn seed |
| [00:34.29] |
|
| [00:35.35] |
There's a dyin' voice within me reaching out somewhere |
| [00:43.15] |
|
| [00:44.46] |
Toiling in the danger and in the morals of despair |
| [00:52.07] |
|
| [00:52.94] |
Don't have the inclination to look back on any mistake |
| [01:00.62] |
|
| [01:01.44] |
Like cain, I now behold this chain |
| [01:05.80] |
of events that I must break |
| [01:10.10] |
In the fury of the moment, |
| [01:14.29] |
I can see the master's hand |
| [01:18.65] |
In every leaf that trembles, |
| [01:22.96] |
in every grain of sand |
| [01:27.95] |
|
| [01:29.64] |
Oh, the flowers of indulgence |
| [01:33.57] |
and the weeds of yester year |
| [01:37.94] |
Like criminals, they have choked the breath |
| [01:42.43] |
of conscience and good cheer |
| [01:46.61] |
Then the sun beat down upon the steps |
| [01:50.98] |
of time to light the way |
| [01:55.29] |
To ease the pain of idleness and the memory of decay |
| [02:03.96] |
I gaze into the doorway of temptation's angry flame |
| [02:12.45] |
And every time I pass that way I always hear my name |
| [02:20.99] |
Then onward in my journey, I come to understand |
| [02:29.42] |
That every hair is numbered like every grain of sand |
| [02:39.21] |
|
| [03:49.03] |
I have gone from rags to riches |
| [03:53.22] |
in the sorrow of the night |
| [03:56.41] |
|
| [03:57.41] |
In the violence of a summer's dream, |
| [04:00.90] |
|
| [04:01.46] |
in the chill of a wintery light |
| [04:04.83] |
|
| [04:05.84] |
In the bitter dance of loneliness fading into space |
| [04:13.19] |
|
| [04:14.25] |
In the broken mirror of innocence |
| [04:18.43] |
on each forgotten face |
| [04:21.55] |
|
| [04:22.80] |
I hear the ancient footsteps like the motion of the sea |
| [04:31.10] |
Sometimes I turn, there's someone there, |
| [04:35.03] |
other times it's only me |
| [04:39.21] |
I am hanging in the balance of the reality of man |
| [04:46.39] |
|
| [04:47.76] |
Like every sparrow falling, like every grain of sand |
