Bob Dylan - Changing of The Guards слова песни




Sixteen years,Sixteen banners united over the fieldWhere the good shepherd grieves.Desperate men, desperate women divided,Spreading their wings neath the falling leaves.Fortune calls.I stepped forth from the shadows, to the marketplace,Merchants and thieves, hungry for power, my last deal gone down.Shes smelling sweet like the meadows where she was born,On midsummers eve, near the tower.The cold-blooded moon.The captain waits above the celebrationSending his thoughts to a beloved maidWhose ebony face is beyond communication.The captain is down but still believing that his love will be repaid.They shaved her head.She was torn between jupiter and apollo.A messenger arrived with a black nightingale.I seen her on the stairs and I couldnt help but follow,Follow her down past the fountain where they lifted her veil.I stumbled to my feet.I rode past destruction in the ditchesWith the stitches still mending neath a heart-shaped tattoo.Renegade priests and treacherous young witchesWere handing out the flowers that Id given to you.The palace of mirrorsWhere dog soldiers are reflected,The endless road and the wailing of chimes,The empty rooms where her memory is protected,Where the angels voices whisper to the souls of previous times.She wakes him upForty-eight hours later, the sun is breakingNear broken chains, mountain laurel and rolling rocks.Shes begging to know what measures he now will be taking.Hes pulling her down and shes clutching on to his long golden locks.Gentlemen, he said,I dont need your organization, Ive shined your shoes,Ive moved your mountains and marked your cardsBut eden is burning, either brace yourself for eliminationOr else your hearts must have the courage for the changing of the guards.Peace will comeWith tranquility and splendor on the wheels of fireBut will bring us no reward when her false idols fallAnd cruel death surrenders with its pale ghost retreatingBetween the king and the queen of swords.
