To one of my father's whom I just remembered to the best legend from hibbing minnesota; WE LOVE YOU

roses fall from heavens door

I wish I could see you once more

you lived a life full and amazed

coming down from that glaze

your talent stretches out to the sea

I wish I never would of left you be

You history was quite a mystery

as you were unknown to most

but a hero to me

how can it be

we only knew of each other

from another friend in the business.

I pray your out of pain that pulled you down

to wipe away your years that fell to the ground

I heard your song today

and it brought me back to the blue and the gray

Oh how I wish I could talk to you

to just be with you and shoot the blue

horizon over the sea that separates you

from me.

Knocking on heavens door I wish

I could hear your song once more

one more time for you to shine

talking to God and of thee Devine.

Like A Rolling Stone Bob Dylan

Once upon a time you dressed so fine Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you? People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall' You thought they were all kidding you You used to laugh about Everybody that was hanging out Now you don't talk so loud Now you don't seem so proud About having to be scrounging your next meal How does it feel, how does it feel? To be without a home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ahh you've gone to the finest schools, alright Miss Lonely But you know you only used to get juiced in it Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street And now you're gonna have to get used to it You say you never compromise With the mystery tramp, but now you realize He's not selling any alibis As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes And say do you want to make a deal? How does it feel, how does it feel? To be on your own, with no direction home A complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ah you never turned around to see the frowns On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you You never understood that it ain't no good You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat Ain't it hard when you discovered that He really wasn't where it's at After he took from you everything he could steal How does it feel, how does it feel? To have on your own, with no direction home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Ahh princess on a steeple and all the pretty people They're all drinking, thinking that they've got it made Exchanging all precious gifts But you better take your diamond ring, you better pawn it babe You used to be so amused At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used Go to him he calls you, you can't refuse When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal How does it feel, ah how does it feel? To be on your own, with no direction home Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone Source: LyricFind Songwriters: Bob Dylan
