It ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
It don't matter anyhow
And it ain't no use to sit and wonder why, babe
If you don't know by now.
When the rooster crows at the break of dawn
Look out your window and I'll be gone
You're the reason I'm travellin' on
Don't think twice, it's alright.
It ain't no use in turnin' on you light, babe
A light I never ever knowed
It ain't no use in turnin' on your light, babe
I'm on the dark side of the road
Still I wish there were something
you would do or say
To try and make me change my mind and stay
We never did too much talkin' anyway
So don't think twice, it's alright.
I'm walkin' down that long lonesome road, babe
Where I'm bound, I can not tell
Goodbye is too good a word, gal
So I'll just say, fare thee well.
I'm not sayin' you treated me unkind
You could have done better but I don't mind
You just kinda wasted my precious time
But don't think twice, it's alright.
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
Like you never ever done before
It ain't no use in callin' out my name, gal
I can't hear you anymore
I'm a-thinkin' and wonderin' all the
way down the road
I once loved a woman, a child I'm told
I gave her my heart but she wanted my soul
But don't think twice, it's alright.


Well, if you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.

Well, if you go when the snowflakes storm,
When the rivers freeze and summer ends,
Please see if she's wearing a coat so warm,
To keep her from the howlin' winds.

Please see for me if her hair hangs long,
If it rolls and flows all down her breast.
Please see for me if her hair hangs long,
That's the way I remember her best.

I'm a-wonderin' if she remembers me at all.
Many times I've often prayed
In the darkness of my night,
In the brightness of my day.

So if you're travelin' in the north country fair,
Where the winds hit heavy on the borderline,
Remember me to one who lives there.
She once was a true love of mine.


My 2 faviourite songs at the moment. Both an inspiration, both amazing. Dylan at his lyrical best and just to think he was my age when he wrote them. Makes me think. Makes me determined.
