Bob Dylan — Dont Fall Apart on Me Version 2 Infidels Outtake

[Verse 1] Just a minute 'fore you leave, girl Just a minute 'fore you touch the door What is it that you’re trying to achieve, girl? Maybe we can talk about it some more? You know, the streets are filled with vipers Who’ve lost all ray of hope You know, it's not even safe no more In the palace of the Pope [Chorus] Don’t fall apart on me tonight I just don’t think that I could handle it Don’t fall apart on me tonight Yesterday’s just a memory Tomorrow's never what it’s supposed to be And I need you, yeah [Verse 2] Come over herе from over there, girl Sit down hеre, you can have my chair I can’t see us goin' anywhere, girl The only place open is a thousand miles away And I'm not gonna take you there I wished I’d have been a doctor Maybe I’d have saved some life that've been lost Maybe I’d have done some good in the world Instead of burning every bridge I crossed [Chorus] Don’t fall apart on me tonight I just don’t think that I could handle it Don’t fall apart on me tonight Yesterday’s just a memory Tomorrow's never what it’s supposed to be And I need you, yeah you, I need you [Verse 3] I ain't too good at conversation, girl So you might not know exactly how I feel But if I could I’d bring you to the mountain top, girl And build you a house made out of stainless steel But it’s like I’m stuck inside a painting That’s hanging in the Louvre My throat starts to tickle and my nose itches But I know that I can’t move [Chorus] Don’t fall apart on me tonight I just don’t think that I could handle it Don’t fall apart on me tonight Yesterday’s gone but the past live' on Tomorrow's just one step beyond And I need you, oh yeah, I need you [Bridge] Who are these people that are walking towards you? Do you know them or will there be a fight? With their humorless smiles so easy to see through Can they tell you what’s wrong from what’s right? Oh, do you remember Napoleon Street Where you blew Jackie P.’s mind? You were so fine, Clark Gable would have fell at your feet And laid his life on the line [Verse 4] Let’s try to get beneath the surface waste, girl No more booby traps and bombs No more decadence and charms No more affection that’s misplaced, girl No more mudcake creatures lying in your arms What about that millionaire With the drumsticks in his pants? He looked so baffled and so bewildered When he played and we didn’t dance [Chorus] Don’t fall apart on me tonight I just don’t think that I could handle it Don’t fall apart on me tonight Yesterday is just a memory Tomorrow's never what it’s supposed to be And I need you Yeah, you, I need you
