Joshua Radin – I'd Rather Be With You Lyrics 15 years ago
Shanamaj, I agree completely.

But then again, who can blame him for wanting that? I'd do it myself if I thought I had a chance to make it in the industry.

Am I the only one to hear the "Blonde on Blonde" sound in this song?

Bob Dylan – Red River Shore Lyrics 15 years ago
I read an interpretation of this song on another side that I think is the most fitting.

The song is about a young man in love with a girl, but she dies early and the man can't accept it. In fact, he starts imagining her alive so strongly he practically hallucinates it.
But now he's old and reflects ver the fact that she's not real.

Several lines give clues to much of it being imagination.

"Though nothing looks familiar to me
I know I've stayed here before"

It's a world he imagined, the real world seems strange to him.

"Everybody that I talked to had seen us there
Said they didn't know who I was talking about"

Pretty self-explanatory.

"Some of us turn off the lights and we live
In the moonlight shooting by
Some of us scare ourselves to death in the dark
To be where the angels fly"

Some are affected by death, others are not. He is.

etc.

But ss always with Dylan, this is probably just scratching on the surface.

Bob Dylan – 'Til I Fell in Love with You Lyrics 15 years ago
He's in love with a woman and is sure she loves him back, but when he explains how he feels he realizes that it isn't so, and now he wishes that he never fooled himself into thinking such things in the first place.

If you've been down that road, this song is the perfect description of the feeling.

Rascal Flatts – Bless The Broken Road Lyrics 15 years ago
I'm afraid that I can't really tune in with the abundant praising here. Not that I don't like the song but I find it to be nothing more than "OK".

However, as was said on the first page; this is not necessarily a love song, it's a religious song about finding the true faith, about finding Jesus. "God Bless" and "it's all part of a grander plan" are obvious clues, but it's also crowded with (what I suspect to be) references to "The Pilgrim's Progress". "Narrow way" is the "King's Highway", "Broken Road" would be the "City of Destruction" (this world in general), "Northern Stars" is the "Shinig Light" etc. etc.

Maybe it's not, but I can't see this as a Love Song.

Bob Dylan – Tombstone Blues Lyrics 16 years ago
The whole song is Bobmeisters response to all the critics that claim his songs to be incomprehensible and lacks any real meaning. The provocative tone means that it is exactly that. All the lines up until the last is just exaggerating nonsense for the sake of exaggerating nonsense and then he adds, in a preferably sarcastic voice, "Oh, wait, you don't understand? I'm sorry Ican't convey the meanings of my songs, I really wish I could do better."

"
Now I wish I could write you a melody so plain
That could hold you dear lady from going insane
That could ease you and cool you and cease the pain
Of your useless and pointless knowledge
"
