Reflecting on changes, time marches on.
Shake your windows, rattle the walls.
a-changin’ but music that’s Forever Young.
a-changin’ and just Like a Rolling Stone.
Times a-changin right before my eyes.
All of the changes out there.
Window to soul, original and only.
Keeping up with Jones. Facing off.
Distracting vision hides what’s happening inside.
Gotta face the changes one day.
And the wheel’s STILL in spin…
Where did all the flowers go?
We can only watch times a-changing
We can only watch times a-changing
weatherman, which way does wind blow?
From heaven’s window times seems unchangeable
Wish I knew what future holds.
Lord, did you hear my prayer?
Hope tomorrow brings a new view.
The window that reflects our soul
A hard rain’s a gonna fall.
Don’t throw 45s at this window.
Not every watchtower is a castle.
Looks dim out…..wait…wash window!
Bored. Hope it “goes down” tonight!
I wonder whose kissing her now.
Dylan’s in pain in the pane.
Can Bobby come out to play?
This historic property to be remodeled.
Man of mystery to this day.
I can’t face anyone right now.
Times a’changing, but window still same.
Unlock my heart, key under sill.
I can see forever from here.
Ordered to go away from window.
She left at own chosen speed.
A day for the record books
This too shall pass…vicariously, perhaps.
What could I possibly been thinking?
No bird going to hit this.
Patiently prayng for better days ahead.
Who’s that face in the window?
How much those eyes in window?
Restless farewell, knocking on heaven’s door.
Woody, you’re comming back, right, Woody?
I see the sun come shinning…
Think I heard a tambourine, man
Must be fall, time, it’s changing.
In the jingle-jangle I’ll come following…
The times they are a changing.
This’ the house of Rising Sun.
Not dark yet, but getting there.
Killing time before it changes me.
This house is the rising sun.
All I want to do… Friends?
Time stopped, he rocked, fans shocked.
Urban decay, suburban sprawl, reflected all.
Tempest in paned glass, looks back.
I was so much younger then….
It’s alright, Ma, I’m only watching.
My your still remain intact forever.
long ago, far away …
we loved
Donovan was never in Smith Magazine
You don’t need a weather man.
My youth will remain intact forever
Gladys Kravits has nothing on me!
Who needs curtains; when we’ve music?
Ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s farm…
Looking though your souls window
You’re in the wrong place, my friend.
Sad eyed man of second story.
From here, seeing beyond the horizon.
Trapped in the window of time.
Imprisoned in pane, a-changin Nashville skyline.
Forever young, in my heart anyway.
Window’s closed! Which way’s the wind?
It’s never curtains for Bob Dylan.
House of Dylan waits us all.
Music’s on. Lifts the pane…pain.
Let me see the ‘risin sun’
Curtained windows block the ‘risin sun’
It’s really about the bigger picture.
The eyes are the soul’s window
Well it sure looks like rain.
His picture yellows but doesn’t age.
Behind you, facing the storm.
I reflect and fade, creating waves.
I just want to go home.
I hear you out there, somewhere.
Gray and faded but I shine.
Legends face the crowds and smile.
Looking through the window of time.
I look, but am not seen.
Getting dark, too dark to see.
Bobby’s room, always a-changin’, always pane.
Seeing the world through my pane
Private viewing of the outside world
Can you see beyond the pane?
Somebody let me out of here!
My whole life flashes before me.
This aint no window of opportunity
What are those crazy people doing?!
Staying put ’til things get better
I can’t believe she’s really gone
Must be living in a dream
four panes foreshadowing freak flags a-flying!
Life will never be the same
Framed by the panes of time
Bob’s Big Boy is always watching….
No matter where I look…”pane”.
our innocence, like glass panes, shattered
Watching as time flies past me.
Looking through the window of life.
“Seeing your face in every cloud”
“The window makes my problems clearer”
“Looking at you, looking at me”
Bobby. Please crawl out your window.
Bob Dylan. Poster boy of down-home folk.
This picture’s worth more than six-words.
A picture’s worth more than six-words.
Picture in six-words, only 994 left.
A picture’s worth-a-thousand-words, only six needed.
I really miss this quiet time.
Wish I could figure life out.
People are changing with the times.
Now in his 70s and still changing.
In his 70s and still changing.
Never did dwell upon the past.
Never did live in the past.
Behind windows and lyrics we hide.
But my music stays the same…
Lost innocence. Shattered Memories. Divided windows.
BREAK GLASS, “I Will Be Released”
Looking “Like A Rolling Stone(d)” again.
Shit, “A Hard Rain’s A-Gonna Fall”
I know where the future is.
Black&White, but “Tangled Up In Blue”
I can think better in here.
Experienced Poet, Songwriter-Lyricist, and, Accomplished Radical
Lookin’ through glass at free radical.
Times changed through a glass darkly.
Looking through a life of pain.
Life’s a pane in the glass.
times changed. crawl out the window.
Always on the inside, looking out.
Bobby’s in my home and heart.
Bobby, so young, preserved behind glass.
He knew us once and again.
A poet, a prophet, a prince.
He gazed out. I gazed in.
Bobby’s always hiding in plain sight.
Looks like bad weather has past.
Grr not past—- passed. Looks like bad weather has passed.
Any day I shall be released.
Still lookin’ for that change…sigh.
His face pressed up against window.
Look who lives in my house.
I don’t like what i see
The eyes Are truly the window
Looking through window, feeling the pain.
Another Friday night, and I’m grounded!
Can’t see reflection in the window.
You can’t ever really go home
Waiting for someone to break in.
Don’t worry, you’re gonna make it.
The answer for wind blowing in
Where are the curtains? Damn it!
Bob Dylan said it in five.
If you only knew my sarrows.
Night full of darkness and dispare.
.I should stop being a poster.
Change seemed so much easier then.
Not as shallow as Robert Zimmerman
Someday, I wanna meet the President
Easier looking at window from outside.
Shades of grey, and blue sky.
Everybody must have windows….
Looking out my window into yours.
Everybody, must have windows now…
..gonna have to get a screen…
Wow, I’m usually on the outside.
…The mail is running late today…
Never look back and have regrets.
Knock, knock, knocking at Heavens Door.
A soul’s window quickly quarters genius
College kids never sincerely respect genius
Forever caught in a still frame
Pausing to appreciate the beauty outside
Melissa Etheridge, come to my window!
When Quin the Eskimo gets here!
Save me. Let me go.
Love looks not with the eyes.
Music, the window to inner soul.
You’re the object of my desire.
A very great man once said.
From the crossroads of my doorstep.
All old things become new again.
This time I’m asking for freedom.
The time snow begins to thaw.
From the heavens to the ground.
In heaven, I’ll see you again.
Its all up to me now.
Go away from my window,
LEAVE!
Pleasure’s got an edge of pane
Through the window to my soul
Love finds you in strange places
Pane of then a day Ponders
she loves me not, she loves…
Lord, Lord, I know your there.
Lord, I wish it would rain.
Forever is a long time, young.
How I wish it were so…
The foreign sun, it squints upon
Blessed to have one more day.
Through the windows of my soul.
Can you see what I see?
Tired of living in the attic!
Wish I’d bought gold last year.
Wish I had believed in myself
“How I wish you were here!”
“Today’s the day my life begins.”
Live for today, tomorrow isn’t promised.
“I just know I’m forgetting something.”
“Today will be a great day!”
I’d do it all over again.
is a-changin’ one word or two?
