Caribbean Wind (Live Nov. 12, 1980) - Bob Dylan (鲍勃·迪伦)[00:00:00]
Written by:Bob Dylan[00:00:01]
She was from Haiti fair brown and intense[00:00:16]
Her middle and her home lost with it[00:00:19]
There is playing show in Miami in the theater of divine company[00:00:21]
Told about Jesus told about the rain[00:00:29]
She told me about the vision told me about the pain[00:00:32]
That has arisen from the ashes abided in her memory[00:00:36]
Is she a child or a woman[00:00:42]
I really can't say[00:00:44]
Something about her said[00:00:46]
Trust me anyway[00:00:48]
As the days turned to minutes and the minutes turned back into hours[00:00:49]
Could I've been used and played as a pawn[00:00:57]
It certainly was possible as the gay night wore on[00:01:00]
But victory was mine and I held it with the help of God's power[00:01:03]
And that Caribbean wind still blows from Trinidad to Mexico[00:01:10]
The circle of light to the furnace of desire[00:01:17]
And them distant ships of liberty on them iron waves so bold and free[00:01:24]
Bringing everything that's near to me nearer to the fire[00:01:31]
Shadows grew closer as we touched on the floor[00:01:43]
Prodigal son sitting next to the door[00:01:47]
Preaching resistance waitin' for the night to arrive[00:01:50]
He was well connected but his heart was a snare[00:01:57]
'Cause she had left him to die in there[00:02:01]
And I knew he could get out while he still was alive[00:02:04]
Stars on my balcony buzz in my head[00:02:11]
Ceiling my baby love heat in my bed[00:02:15]
Street band playin' nearer my God to thee[00:02:18]
We met at the steeple where the mission bells ring[00:02:25]
She said I know what you're thinking but there ain't a thing[00:02:28]
You can do about it so you might as well agree to agree[00:02:32]
And that Caribbean wind blows hard from the Valley coast into my backyard[00:02:39]
Drivin' all your love to the furnace of desire[00:02:46]
And them distant ships of liberty on them iron waves so bold and free[00:02:53]
Bringing everything that's near to me nearer to the fire[00:03:00]
Atlantic City by the cruel sea[00:03:23]
I hear a voice cryin' daddy I always think it's for me[00:03:25]
But it's only the silence in the buttermilk hills that call[00:03:29]
Bearin' new messages bringin' evil reports[00:03:37]
Of riotin' armies and time that is short[00:03:39]
And earthquakes and train wrecks and death threats written on walls[00:03:43]
Would I have married her I don't know I suppose[00:03:50]
She had bells on her braids and they hung to her toes[00:03:53]
The curtain was risin' and like they say the ship will sail at dawn[00:03:57]
And I felt it come over me some kind of gloom[00:04:04]
I'm gonna say come on with me girl I got plenty of room[00:04:07]
But I knew I'd be lyin' and besides she had already gone[00:04:10]
And that Caribbean wind still howls from Tokyo to the British Isles[00:04:18]
We never walked in to that furnace of desire[00:04:25]
And them distant ships of liberty on 'em iron waves so bold and free[00:04:31]
Bringing everything that's near to me nearer to the fire[00:04:38]
