Shadows are fallin' an' i been here all day
It's too hot to sleep and time is runnin' away
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
[There's(a)] not even room enough to be anywhere
It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.
[Well,] my sense of humanity is going down the drain
Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain
She wrote me a letter an' she wrote it so kind
She put down in writin' what was in her mind
[But] I [just(a)] don't see why i [should even(a)/really should(f.2)] care
It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.
[Well,] I been to London and [I been(a)] to gay Paris
I followed the river an' i got to the sea
I been down on the bottom of a world full of lies
I ain't lookin' for [nothin' in anyone's(a)/anythin' in anybody's(f.2)] eyes
Sometimes my burden is more than I can bear
It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.
I was born here an' i'll die here, against my will
I know it looks like i'm movin', but i'm standin' still
Every nerve in my body is so vacant an' numb
I can't even remember what it was i came here to get away from
Don't even hear the murmur of a prayer
It's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.

Time Out of Mind sessions, Criteria studios, Miami FL - 11.jan.1997, BS-17 #2 v.1
Well, shadows are fallin' an' i been here all day
It's too hot to sleep, time is runnin' away
Feel like my soul has turned into steel
I've still got the scars that the sun didn't heal
There's not even room enough to be anywhere
Lord, it's not dark yet but it's gettin' there.
Well, my sense of humanity has gone down the drain
Behind every beautiful thing, there's been some kind of pain
Just bein' in the same country as her is makin' me blue
I got nothin' left over from the love that we knew
A love that i know that i never can share
Lord, it's not dark yet but it's getting there.
Feel like my eyes are two pieces of broken glass
Well, iÕm standin' in the shadows waitin' for the parade to pass
Feel like the hand of fate has jabbed its finger in my eye
IÕm in the land of the lost where dreams come to die
Sometime my burden seems more than i can bear
Lord, it's not dark yet but it's getting there
Well, i can close my eyes and i see her from such a long ways off
Her lips were so tender, her skin was so soft
IÕve gone too far, down lifeÕs beaten track
And iÕm prayin' the master will guide me back
The violets are fadin' and the trees are bare
Lord, it's not dark yet but it's getting there.
