Visions of Johanna - Bob Dylan

Lyrics
words to study

Ain't it just like the night to play tricks,

when you're tryin' to be so quiet?

We sit here stranded,

though we're all doin our best to deny it

And Louise holds a handfull of rain,

tempting you to defy it

Lights flicker from the opposite loft

In this room the heat pipes just cough

The country music station plays soft

But there's nothing really nothing to turn of

Just Louise and her lover so entwined

And these visions of Johanna,

that conquer my mind

In the empty lot where the ladies play

blindman's bluff with the key chain

And the all-night girls they whisper of escapades

out on the D-train

We can hear the night watcman click his flashlight

Ask himself if it's him or them that's really insane

Louise she's all right she's just near

She's delicate and seems like the mirror

But she just makes it all too concise and too clear

That Johanna's not here

The ghost of electricity howls

in the bones of her face

Where these visions of Johanna

have now taken my place

Now, little boy lost, he takes himself so seriously
