Bob Dylan - Someone's Got a Hold of My Heart lyrics
[Bob Dylan - Someone's Got a Hold of My Heart lyrics]
They say, "Eat, drink and be merry
Take the bull by the horns"
I keep seeing visions of you
A lily among thorns
Everything looks a little far away to me
Getting harder and harder to
Recognize the trap
Too much information about nothing
Too much educated rap
It’s just like you told me
Just like you said it would be
The moon rising like wildfire
I feel the breath of a storm
Something I got to do tonight
You go inside and stay warm
Someone’s got a hold of my heart
Someone’s got a hold of my heart
Someone’s got a hold of my heart you
Yeah, you got a hold of my heart
Just got back from a city
Of flaming red skies
Everybody thinks with their stomach
There’s plenty of spies
Every street is crooked
They just wind around till they disappear
Madame Butterfly, she lulled me to sleep
Like an ancient river so wide and deep
She said, "Be easy, baby
Ain’t nothin’ worth stealing in here"
You’re the one I’ve been waiting for
You’re the one I desire
But, you must first realize
I’m not another man for hire
I can hear that hot-blooded singer
On the bandstand croon poisoned Love
Red Roses for a Blue Lady and Memphis in June
While they’re beating the devil out of a
Guy who’s wearing a powder blue wig
I been to Babylon i gotta confess
I could still hear the voice
Crying in the wilderness
What looks large from a distance
Close up is never that big
Never could learn to drink that
Blood and call it wine
Never could learn to look at your
Face and call it mine
Take the bull by the horns"
I keep seeing visions of you
A lily among thorns
Everything looks a little far away to me
Getting harder and harder to
Recognize the trap
Too much information about nothing
Too much educated rap
It’s just like you told me
Just like you said it would be
The moon rising like wildfire
I feel the breath of a storm
Something I got to do tonight
You go inside and stay warm
Someone’s got a hold of my heart
Someone’s got a hold of my heart
Someone’s got a hold of my heart you
Yeah, you got a hold of my heart
Just got back from a city
Of flaming red skies
Everybody thinks with their stomach
There’s plenty of spies
Every street is crooked
They just wind around till they disappear
Madame Butterfly, she lulled me to sleep
Like an ancient river so wide and deep
She said, "Be easy, baby
Ain’t nothin’ worth stealing in here"
You’re the one I’ve been waiting for
You’re the one I desire
But, you must first realize
I’m not another man for hire
I can hear that hot-blooded singer
On the bandstand croon poisoned Love
Red Roses for a Blue Lady and Memphis in June
While they’re beating the devil out of a
Guy who’s wearing a powder blue wig
I been to Babylon i gotta confess
I could still hear the voice
Crying in the wilderness
What looks large from a distance
Close up is never that big
Never could learn to drink that
Blood and call it wine
Never could learn to look at your
Face and call it mine
