Bob Dylan – Abandoned Love Lyrics  Share

I can hear the turning of the key
I^,ve been deceived by the clown inside of me.
I thought that he was righteous but he^,s vain
Oh, something^,s a-telling me I wear the ball and chain.

My patron saint is a-fighting with a ghost
He^,s always off somewhere when I need him most.
The Spanish moon is rising on the hill
But my heart is a-tellin^, me I love ya still.

I come back to the town from the flaming moon
I see you in the streets, I begin to swoon.
I love to see you dress before the mirror
Won^,t you let me in your room one time ^,fore I finally disappear?

Everybody^,s wearing a disguise
To hide what they^,ve got left behind their eyes.
But me, I can^,t cover what I am
Wherever the children go I^,ll follow them.

I march in the parade of liberty
[ Abandoned Love lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/b/bob-dylan/abandoned-love/ ]
But as long as I love you I^,m not free.
How long must I suffer such abuse
Won^,t you let me see you smile one time before I turn you loose?

I^,ve given up the game, I^,ve got to leave,
The pot of gold is only make-believe.
The treasure can^,t be found by men who search
Whose gods are dead and whose queens are in the church.

We sat in an empty theater and we kissed,
I asked ya please to cross me off-a your list.
My head tells me it^,s time to make a change
But my heart is telling me I love ya but you^,re strange.

One more time at midnight, near the wall
Take off your heavy make-up and your shawl.
Won^,t you descend from the throne, from where you sit?
Let me feel your love one more time before I abandon it.
