Testo Restless Farewell - Mark Knopfler
Testo della canzone Restless Farewell (Mark Knopfler), tratta dall'album Chimes of Freedom - The Songs of Bob Dylan (Honoring 50 Years of Amnesty International)
Oh, all the money that in my whole life I did spend
Be it mine right or wrongfully
I let it slip gladly through the hands of my friends
To tie up the time most forcefully
But the bottles are done, we've killed each one
And the table's full and overflowed
And the corner sign says it's closing time
So I'll bid farewell and be down the road
Oh, every girl that ever I've touched
I did not do it harmfully
And every girl that ever I've hurt
I did not do it knowinily
But to remain as friends and make amends
You need the time and stay behind
And since my feet are now fast
Point away from the past
I'll bid farewell and be down the line
Oh, every foe that ever I faced
The cause was there before we came
Every cause that ever I fought
I fought it full, without regret or shame
But the dark does die as the curtain is drawn
And somebody's eyes must meet the dawn
And if I see the day, I'd only have to stay
So I'll bid farewell in the night and be gone
Oh, every thought that strung a knot in my mind
I might go insane if it couldn't be sprung
But it's not to stand naked under unknowin' eyes
It's for myself and my friends, my stories are sung
But the time ain't tall, yet on time you depend
And no word is possessed by no special friend
And though the line is cut, it ain't quite the end
I'll just bid farewell 'til we meet again
And a false clock tries to tick out my time
To disgrace, distract, and bother me
And the dirt of gossip blows into my face
And the dust of rumors covers me
But if the arrow is straight, and the point is slick
It can pierce through the dust, no matter how thick
So I'll make my stand, remain as I am
And bid farewell and not give a damn
