THIS DREAM OF YOU How long can I stay In this nowhere cafe 'fore night turns into day? I wonder why I'm so frightened of dawn? All I have and all I know Is this dream of you which keeps me living on There's a moment when All old things become new again But that moment might have come and gone All I have and all I know Is this dream of you which keeps me living on I look away but I keep seein' it I don't want to believe but I keep believing it Shadows dance upon the wall Shadows that seem to know it all Am I too blind to see? Is my heart playing tricks on me? I'm lost in the crowd, all my tears are gone All I have and all I know Is this dream of you which keeps me living on Everything I touch seems to disappear Everywhere I turn, you are always here I'll run this race until my earthly death I'll defend this place with my dying breath From a cheerless room In a curtained gloom, I saw a star from heaven fall I turned and looked again but it was gone All I have and all I know Is this dream of you which keeps me living on |

The next two appearances of this gem were in October 2009 in California, before it was performed in Oklahoma, and then during the third show in Chicago, which also featured the excellent live debut of "IT'S ALL GOOD". Two days after that "THIS DREAM OF YOU" appeared in Indiana, once again in the same set as "IT'S ALL GOOD". "THIS DREAM OF YOU" was not performed on stage at all in 2010 and 2011, and it was not until August 2012 that Dylan chose to perform it again, during his North American summer tour of 2012, this time playing on his grand piano, at first in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and then a few weeks later in Salisbury, Maryland, in Port Chester, New York (see mp3 below of this sublime version), in Lewiston, New York, and in Hershey, Pennsylvania. During the North American fall tour of 2012 "THIS DREAM OF YOU" appeared only at the opening show in Winnipeg, Manitoba. |
