Array ( [sid] => 128067 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => i'm not there [time] => 2006-11-11 08:52:54 [hometext] => inspied by the dylan song of the same name [bodytext] => Where she goes she goes slow
And she’s a-crying all the time
It’s a mile stone a milestone
It’s a dirty rotten crime
What ever she asks for
She’ll get it in spades
But she’ll take it all for granted
Then ask for a trade

Now if it was more easy
Then I could find a way
To be more revealing
As she begs me to stay

And her hair is so smooth
And her clothes are so clean
But the burden she carries
It cannot be seen

And you are so beautiful
It true yes I can see it in my mind
But you do not believe it
You’re a prize for any man to find
But I do oh yes it’s true
It’s sacred to me
But I cannot seal it
And it nails you to the tree
Of all these limitations
And the tragedies on this earth
You set me reeling
And that truly hurts

You woke up this morning
With bile in your mouth
You cursed God in anger
As I prayed in his house
And you walk alone
Through this world of sin
Soul shut up
To what I hold to within
And I reach out in love
As you take another trip
Falling through the stars
With a smile upon your lips


Of all Gods creations
I confess to you who see
You’re the most beautiful
You don’t know you inspire me
But my nature is against it
A house and some kids
The fire it burns
And runs over lids
In another universe
Oh enough of dreams
Your spirit in it’s wilderness cries out
Bursting at the seems

Your gonna need something sweetheart
To sooth your scattered mind
Your gonna need something stronger
And He knows the time
You can’t buy no
And you can’t borrow
But listen to me please
Today and tomorrow
Don’t you worry none
About what’s round the bend
I may not be there
But you got a friend

She’s the virgin Madonna
The reality and the dream
The whore on the corner
More than cannot be seen
Angel in the gutter
No man may assist
Silent wonder
Sun and moon have kissed
Temptation Temptation
The kingdom lies ahead
Not in your hands
Or some strangers bed

Buried in your magazines
Learn you New Age lessons
God in your purse
Next to your antidepressants
Now the silent places they are a terror
Your soul it is a dread
When I look your in some club
Drowning in you head
But don’t you worry no
He’s got his eyes on you
His heart is a boat
And the life belt is true

I wish I could be him
The man that you need
The groom at the alter
To nurture your seed
There is someone yes
There’s someone for everyone
But don’t worry ‘bout that now
Just listen to this song

Your time is coming
Yes yes I can see
Trust in God baby
I’m only me
I can be there
But I can’t always stay
I have my own road
But I’ll love you all the way

There is one who will strengthen
Take and build you up
I’ll love you always
Please drink from his cup
So lift up your head
Your spirit they can’t kill
I may not be there
He always will
