Bob Dylan - I And I
Infidels (1983)
[Verse]
AmBeen so long since a Cstrange woman has slept in my bedG  
DLook how sweet she sleepAms, how free must be her dreams
AmIn another Clifetime she must have owned the Gworld, or been faithfully wed
DTo some righteous king who wrote psalms beAmside moonlit streams
[Chorus]
AmI and I
In Gcreation where one's Dnature neither Amhonors nor forgives
AmI and I
GOne says to the Dother, no man Amsees my face and lives
[Verse]
AmThink I'll go oCut and go for a wGalk
DNot much happenin' here, Amnothin' ever does
AmBesides, if Cshe wakes up now, she'll just wanGt me to talk
DI got nothin' to say, 'specially about whaAmtever was
[Chorus]
AmI and I
In Gcreation where one's Dnature neither Amhonors nor forgives
AmI and I
GOne says to the Dother, no man Amsees my face and lives
[Verse]
AmTook an untroddCen path once, wheGre the swift don't win the race
DIt goes to the worthy, whAmo can divide the word of truth
AmTook a stranCger to teach me, to look into jusGtice's beautiful face
DAnd to see an eye for an eye and a tooth fAmor a tooth
[Chorus]
AmI and I
In Gcreation where one's Dnature neither Amhonors nor forgives
AmI and I
GOne says to the Dother, no man Amsees my face and lives
[Verse]
AmOutside of two Cmen on a train plGatform there's nobody in sight
DThey're waiting for sprinAmg to come, smoking down the track
AmThe world coCuld come to an end tonight, but tGhat's all right
DShe should still be there sleepin' when I Amget back
[Chorus]
AmI and I
In Gcreation where one's Dnature neither Amhonors nor forgives
AmI and I
GOne says to the Dother, no man Amsees my face and lives
[Verse]
AmNoontime, and IC'm still pushin' Gmyself along the road, the darkest part
DInto the narrow lanes, I Amcan't stumble or stay put
AmSomeone else Cis speakin' with my mouth, but IG'm listening only to my heart
DI've made shoes for everyone, even you, whAmile I still go barefoot
[Chorus]
AmI and I
In Gcreation where one's Dnature neither Amhonors nor forgives
AmI and I
GOne says to the Dother, no man Amsees my face and lives
