Lyrics:
Ramona, come closer,
Shut softly your watery eyes.
The pangs of your sadness
Shall pass as your senses will rise.
The flowers of the city
Though breathlike, get deathlike at times.
And there's no use in tryin'
T' deal with the dyin',
Though I cannot explain that in lines.

Your cracked country lips,
I still wish to kiss,
As to be under the strength of your skin.
Your magnetic movements
Still capture the minutes I'm in.
But it grieves my heart, love,
To see you tryin' to be a part of
A world that just don't exist.
It's all just a dream, babe,
A vacuum, a scheme, babe,
That sucks you into feelin' like this.

I can see that your head
Has been twisted and fed
By worthless foam from the mouth.
I can tell you are torn
Between stayin' and returnin'
On back to the South.
You've been fooled into thinking
That the finishin' end is at hand.
Yet there's no one to beat you,
No one t' defeat you,
'Cept the thoughts of yourself feeling bad.

I've heard you say many times
That you're better 'n no one
And no one is better 'n you.
If you really believe that,
You know you got
Nothing to win and nothing to lose.
From fixtures and forces and friends,
Your sorrow does stem,
That hype you and type you,
Making you feel
That you must be exactly like them.

I'd forever talk to you,
But soon my words,
They would turn into a meaningless ring.
For deep in my heart
I know there is no help I can bring.
Everything passes,
Everything changes,
Just do what you think you should do.
And someday maybe,
Who knows, baby,
I'll come and be cryin' to you.

[BorrowedTime147]

Very nice, but you missed some wonderful lyrics Alan.

You've been fooled into thinking that the finishing end is at hand

Yet there's no one to beat you, no one to defeat you cept the thoughts of yourself feeling bad.

I've heard you say many times that you're better than no-one and no one is better than you.

If you really believe that, you know you have nothing to win and nothing to lose

At one stage Alan Price worshipped Bob Dylan. You can see this for yourself in the film "Don't Look Back." You can also see Bob Dylan put him down, but then again, in that documentary, about Dylan's tour of England in 1965m, Dylan had a pretty good time putting everyone around him down. That's a shame, because this is a really nice version of a Dylan song. Price has actually done quite a bit of covers and they usually exhibit really good taste. Check out the ones he does with Georgie Fame.

[MrALF423]

How a fantastic singer like Mr; Price with a voice like a foghorn can sing gentle, soft and with feeling ! Beautifull !
