Wow...this is one my favorite Dylan songs, one of my favorite songs by anyone for that matter. I've been enchanted by it for more than 3 decades. It still doesn't sound "old" to me.

...voices echo this is what salvation must be like after awhile...

...the ghost of electricity howls in the bones of her face...

You just don't get word pictures like that in pop song lyrics.

Don't think I've ever seen anyone bring it up on one of these threads before.

Scott says is a huge Dylan fan. One of the biggest. Knows him inside and out.

Even in his less "sophisticated" songs the lyrics are awesome.

I see you got your brand new leopard skin pillbox hat
You must tell me how your head feels under something like that
