Lyrics for Trying To Get To Heaven by Bob Dylan:
| | | Artist: | Bob Dylan |
| | Album: | Time Out Of Mind | | Track: | Trying To Get To Heaven | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 153 | | | | Lyrics: | The air is getting hotter
There's a rumbling in the skies
I've been wading through the
high muddy water
With the heat rising in my eyes
Every day your memory grows
dimmer
It doesn't haunt me like it did before
I've been walking through the middle of
nowhere
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
When I was in
Missouri
They would not let me be
I had to leave there in a hurry
I only saw what
they let me see
You broke a heart that loved you
Now you can seal up the book and not
write anymore
I've been walking that lonesome valley
Trying to get to heaven before they
close the door
People on the platforms
Waiting for the trains
I can hear their
hearts a-beatin'
Like pendulums swinging on chains
When you think that you lost
everything
You find out you can always lose a little more
I'm just going down the road
feeling bad
Trying to get to heaven before they close the door
I'm going down the
river
Down to New Orleans
They tell me everything is gonna be all right
But I don't
know what "all right" even means
I was riding in a buggy with Miss Mary-Jane
Miss
Mary-Jane got a house in Baltimore
I been all around the world, boys
Now I'm trying to get
to heaven before they close the door
Gonna sleep down in the parlor
And relive my
dreams
I'll close my eyes and I wonder
If everything is as hollow as it seems
Some
trains don't pull no gamblers
No midnight ramblers, like they did before
I been to Sugar
Town, I shook the sugar down
Now I'm trying to get to heaven before they close the door | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
