Bob Dylan Lyrics

Album: BLOOD ON THE TRACKS

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You Go Lyrics

I've seen love go by my door

 It's never been this close before

 Never been so easy or so slow

 I've been shooting in the dark too long

 When something not right it's wrong

 Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.

 

 Dragon clouds so high above

 I've only known careless love

 It's always hit me from below

 This time around it's more correct

 Right on target so direct

 Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.

 

 Purple clover Queen Anne lace

 Crimson hair across your face

 You could make me cry if you don't know

 Can't remember what I was thinking of

 You might be spoiling me too much love

 Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.

 

 Flowers on the hillside blooming crazy

 Crickets talking back and forth in rhyme

 Blue river running slow and lazy

 I could stay with you forever

 And never realize the time.

 

 Situations have ended sad

 Relationship have all been bad

 Mine've been like Verlaine's and Rimbaud

 But there's no way I can compare

 All those scenes to this affair

 Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.

 

 Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm doing

 Staying far behind without you

 Yer gonna make me wonder what I'm saying

 Yer gonna make me give myself a good talking to.

 

 I'll look for you in old Honolulu

 San Francisco, Ashtabula

 Yer gonna have to leave me now I know

 But I'll see you in the sky above

 In the tall grass in the ones I love

 Yer gonna make me lonesome when you go.
