Bob Dylan I'm walkin' through streets that are deadWalkin', walkin' with you in my headMy feet are so tiredMy brain is so wiredAnd the clouds are weepin'.Did I hear someone tell a lie?Did I hear someone's distant cry?I spoke like a childYou destroyed me with a smileWhile I was sleepin'.I'm sick of love that I'm in the thick of itThis kind of love, I'm so sick of it.I see, I see lovers in the meadowI see, I see silhouettes in the windowI'll watch them 'til they're goneAnd they leave me hangin' onTo a shadow. I see, I see lovers in the meadowI see, I see silhouettes in the windowI'll watch them 'til they're goneAnd they leave me hangin' onTo a shadow.I'm sick of love, I hear the clock tickThis kind of love, ah, I'm love sick.Sometimes the silence can be like thunderSometimes I wanna take to the road and plunderCould you ever be trueI think of youAnd I wonder.I'm sick of love, I wish I'd never met youI'm sick of love, I'm tryin' to forget you.Just don't know what to doI'd give anything toBe with you.
