[2008nesk]

University Songs for Peace! Thanks Joan Baez! And thanks for all the ones that bravely sing for Daisies, for Glorias, for Amapoulas, Geraniuns and Toulips! We are allways going to need you!

[tadhgterriere]

does anybody know where to find part two of this (i mean original by JB)

[fran9860]

Yes St. Peter; I have been a very good boy. I listened to Joan Baez; can I go in now:)?

[evieturner1]

OH SO MANY MEMORIES

[kaseyfarley]

wonderful.

[MsJol999]

you so sweet dear ,, so good for my heart to feel in me Sir ! :)))) thxx

[Diamonique310]

:(  bittersweet...

[dulcequick]

This song reminds of the Edna Vincent Milay;poem, "Pity me not"

Pity me that the heart is slow to learn

what the swift mind beholds at every turn

or my summary

Pity my heart that is slow to learn

what the quick mind substaniates at each turn

She had wonderful insight for why the heart breaks when love escapes....

[pxtokarev]

This is my favorite!

[mjfergs]

Beautiful! Like everything she touches.

[Tokis7]

Ax vre Kelly mou...

[tovakaye]

wow

[Zeuspathak]

Thanks for everything Joan Baez !!

[limatedman]

I miss my life :(

[Catlovertea4]

@limatedman this whole heart-felt melody-matching-song brings empathy to you, yes? So, you're not alone. But just like she sings at 2:59 - 3:12 - right? - There is always hope of a new one, always.

[limatedman]

Joy is the most infallible sign of the presence of God.

[lilish85]

I love her so much and this song is my favourite .... <3 whenever i listen to it.it's new for me

[fran9860]

A VOICE FROM HEAVEN SENT BY THE FATHER

[cutiemuffins]

Because you gave to me oh so many things it makes me wonder how they could belong to me. I gave you only my dark eyes that melted your soul down to a place where it longs to be..

[mystro810]

a girl that spends the night in a twin bed with a stranger is called a skank

[LilahKnight]

@mystro810 oh yes and what is the GUY called then, you mysogenist?

[mystro810]

@LilahKnight you usually dont call the guy anything, just give him a high-five and buy him a beer.

[SH000FLY]

@mystro810 LOL. That almost made me spit coffee onto my monitor!

[pedonbio]

@mystro810 Spoken by someone very young and with little passion.

[mystro810]

@pedonbio Im over half way to being middle aged. As for passion, I dont know. Sometimes I feel like the trill of living is gone... Im jaded, thats all. Girls have done me wrong, turned me cynical. but Bob Dylan would be on my side

[lawfer54]

@mystro810 The thrill is not gone! This is love song Jubilee ...come taste the joy of true love

simply a beautiful Love sonrg...hear my Harp playing

,,,This is not just another Bob Dylan Love Song!

[NikArcherTH]

as far as I know this song's about the life when you're on tour ...

[alefl04]

I wonder what the last verse means. Were they really strangers or did she meet him before?

[anitajansen1]

what a voice!

[anitajansen1]

just life sang with the most beautiful voice...........

[gugenheim84]

If you don't understand the words in this song, then you haven't lived.

[Anelisa565]

I wish there was a karoake to this!!!!

[NikArcherTH]

@Anelisa565 yeah, that would be nice D:

[f4kadak]

Don't tell me of love everlasting and other sad dreams...

I don't want to hear

Just tell me of passionate strangers who rescue each other

From a lifetime of care

[misszest2502]
