    Lyrics:
    'Twas in another lifetime, one of toil and blood
    When blackness was a virtue the road was full of mud
    I came in from the wilderness, a creature void of form
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    And if I pass this way again, you can rest assured
    I'll always do my best for her, on that I give my word
    In a world of steel-eyed death, and men who are fighting to be warm
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    Not a word was spoke between us, there was little risk involved
    Everything up to that point had been left unresolved
    Try imagining a place where it's always safe and warm
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    I was burned out from exhaustion, buried in the hail
    Poisoned in the bushes an' blown out on the trail
    Hunted like a crocodile, ravaged in the corn
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there
    With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair
    She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    Now there's a wall between us, somethin' there's been lost
    I took too much for granted, I got my signals crossed
    Just to think that it all began on an uneventful morn
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    Well, the deputy walks on hard nails and the preacher rides a mount
    But nothing really matters much, it's doom alone that counts
    And the one-eyed undertaker, he blows a futile horn
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    I've heard newborn babies wailin' like a mournin' dove
    And old men with broken teeth stranded without love
    Do I understand your question, man, is it hopeless and forlorn
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    In a little hilltop village, they gambled for my clothes
    I bargained for salvation and she gave me a lethal dose
    I offered up my innocence I got repaid with scorn
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm
    Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line
    Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine
    If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
    Come in, she said
    I'll give ya shelter from the storm

      No, it was dumb to give the Nobel in literature to a songwriter - nepotistic and tunnel visioned. Millions of book writers, past and now, could’ve received it instead of a songwriter. Songwriters have their own awards. It was an insult.

    "Suddenly I turned around and she was standing there...with silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair...she walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns..come in she said I'll give you shelter from the storm." This is directly from my own life experience after Vietnam. A lovely, generous, understanding young lady saved my life. We lost each other, but I still love her 47 years later. Obviously, I love this song.

      @fqexpat 4 года назад +52

      Hell, if I get much older ... I'll be dead! But, I've been listening to good ole Bob Zimmerman since '64, or was it '63? Whatever, it was a long time ago, and yeah, he does have a certain genius, and like so many other geniuses, he gets misread and misinterpreted quite a bit. Regarding the album this song is on, it's got to be one of the most poignant collection of sad songs I've ever heard. When this album came out in '75, I'd just been "dumped" by the woman I'd been seeing for quite awhile and this was like an album of theme music for me until I got my emotional self back together again. It's only recently that I can listen to it without slipping into a space filled with sad memories. Now, send me a bill for this "session" and I'll send you a check.

      There are other wordsmiths in the music world, each of them unique in their own right. They each have their own "voice", a way of turning a phrase, weaving words together, that you just recognize as THEM when you hear the lines. Dylan is the stand-out for me in the 60s.

    My late husband really admired Bob Dylan, and my husband was quite a man so that says a lot to me in and of itself. He LOVED Bob Dylan. I do too, but now I feel warm but sad when I hear his songs. I want my husband with me and singing along or playing his guitar along with it. Not having him here playing Dylan's songs..........I don't have words how it feels. Others like me will understand. My situation is not unique. He played a lot of Dylan's songs on his Martin. Those are among my favorite times with him. We enjoyed playing and singing Dylan songs and some others minimum 3 times a week. We'd sit across from each other on the sofa, play guitar and singing together! I mean, how awesome is that to do with your hubby!!! So: THANK YOU Bob, for sharing your genius. I don't think there will be another like Dylan, ever. I am also very grateful Bob wrote some of the most amazing music of all time and because of that, along with the music, I have these memories of my husband, that are very dear. It's pretty cool.

    When Bob's album Blood on the Tracks came out I played it over and over. It was THE best album he ever did. It still plays as good as when it first came out. Every song a wonderful single to be savoured. Bob is now 82 years old and he will surely, " make me lonesome when he goes." I hope he stays around a few more years. As I edit this to change Mr. Dylan's age, over the weekend on 1 September 2023, Jimmy Buffett passed away from a rare form of skin cancer.

      Yep. I think this song can only be really understood by a person like you, and me when I heard it years ago. It is about the painful hurt and disappointment in a failed relationship and trust. Notice all the biblical metaphors too, "I offered up my innocence, I got repaid with scorn." It was after this that Dylan got into this Gospel trend, which unfortunately didn't last either. It's too sad really.

    I love this song. It reminds me of a time when I was kinda just drifting around and met a great man. Regardless of his sexuality, age, education level or lifestyle he was a dear friend of mine.... He respected my boundaries and never made me feel like I was a bad man and inspired me to let go of all the pain and love and live again. He was gay and I am not, but regardless I loved him as a friend and cherished our time together and all the conversations we had. I never knew he was a dying man and I didn't want to believe it whe he said he'd be dead by the time I graduated from college. 3 years later I came home after graduation and was applying to pharmacy school and find out he'd past away. I'm in my P1 year and honestly if I'd never met him.... I don't think i would have ever got my head back from out the clouds and clean up my life and get focused. I miss you Roger LaPrade, this is for you. God bless you may you rest in peace! I can still you smiling singing this with me still my friend. Until we meet again... RIP

    Dylan classics, as with many Van Morrison classics, are, for me, much like great art works. By that I mean they all have an indefinable, intangible 'something' that puts them well above just being great songs.

      If nothing else the quarantine surely did just that. I have a one year old granddaughter who loves to listen to music with me. So I am always scouring you tube for long forgotten music and anything new I want to know about. I am always looking for things for her, too. It has become one of my favorite things to do with her. we like to read together, too. What a blessing God has given me, first my two sons and now my beautiful baby granddaughter. She's is not here today and now I miss her. They only live right down the street from me.

      There is more... far beyond here. I have lost loved ones, very close to me. This song is about Wisdom, "she" IS the shelter from the storm. God IS Wisdom, He will comfort you. We are here for a short time, in this "foreign country"
      "Well, I'm livin' in a foreign country but I'm bound to cross the line
      Beauty walks a razor's edge, someday I'll make it mine
      If I could only turn back the clock to when God and her were born
      Come in, she said I'll give ya shelter from the storm"

    I remember seeing Dylan at the spectrum in Philly in the 70's. To me he was larger then life at the time. After the Band played some great music , it got all quiet and dark then 1 spot light came on and there he was. People were crying in the audience . I did not hear 1 person sing along . We were all shocked to see him in person. This little guy on stage in a cowboy hat was Bob Dylan . it's one of the most surreal nights of my life. A true American genius

    Lot of people take a short cut to thinking, and label anyone a genius who does something they know they will never be able to do...
    In the case of Dylan, the word fits perfect. Man just listening this in the dark, on good headphones, I still am just mesmerized. I had the worst two years of an amalganization of grief, loss and bad luck. Just now I smiled and felt truly happy for the first time in I don't know how long.
    Just one man, one guitar, one harmonica, and one song, can just blow away everyone's entire musical career. Listening to this now, I quickly warp to today's music, and it helps you compare to the music culture then and now. To me, man, in this area, it's definitely some type of regression. The whole 60's especially spawned epic music like it was an exhale. People nowadays wouldn't even know how to react to this. Even blow it off as gramp rock. And that's fine. I will happily go listen and furthermore go make sure I seek out any gem I never heard.
    I usually don't spend much time online, and boy I am so glad my clicking got me here, cause I really needed badly to feel in a good mood again.
