elysian fields - tangled up in blue lyrics

early one morning the sun was shining
i was laying in bed
wondering if she’d changed at all
if her hair was still red
her folks they said our lives together
sure was gonna be rough
they never did like mama’s homemade dress
papa’s bankbook wasn’t big enough
and i was standing on the side of the road
rain falling on my shoes
heading out for the east coast
lord knows i’ve paid some dues getting through
tangled up in blue

she lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipе
“i thought you’d never say h+llo” shе said
“you look like the silent type”
then she opened up a book of poems
and handed it to me
written by an italian poet
from the thirteenth century
and every one of them words rang true
and glowed like burning coal
pouring off of every page
like it was written in my soul from me to you
tangled up in blue
so now i’m going back again
i got to get to her somehow
all the people we used to know
they’re an illusion to me now
some are mathematicians
some are carpenter’s wives
don’t know how it all got started
i don’t know what they’re doing with their lives
but me, i’m still on the road
heading for another joint
we always did feel the same
we just saw it from a different point of view
tangled up in blue
