Hey Mr Tambourine Man play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
Though I know that evenings empire has returned into sand
Vanished from my hand
Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping
My weariness amazes me I'm branded on my feet
I have no one to meet
And the ancient empty street's too dead for dreaming
Hey Mr Tambourine Man play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
Take me on a trip upon your magic swirling ship
My senses have been stripped, may hands can't feel to grip
My toes too numb to step, wait only for my bootheels to be wandering
I'm ready to go anywhere I'm ready for to fade, into my own parade
Cast your dancing spell my way I promise to go under it
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
Though you might hear laughing spinning swinging madly across the sun
It's not aimed at anyone, it's just escaping on the run
And but for the sky there are no fences facing
And if you hear vague traces of skipping reels of rhyme
To your tambourine in time, it's just a ragged clown behind
I wouldn't pay it any mind
It's just a shadow you're seeing that he's chasing
Hey Mr Tambourine Man play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey Mr Tambourine Man play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
And take me disappearing through the smoke rings of my mind
Down the foggy ruins of time far past the frozen leaves
The haunted frightened trees, out to the windy bench
Far from the twisted reach of crazy sorrow
Yes to dance beneath the diamond sky with one hand waving free
Silhouetted by the sea circled by the circus sands
With all memory and fate driven deep beneath the waves
Let me forget about today until tomorrow
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man play a song for me
I'm not sleepy and there ain't no place I'm going to
Hey Mr. Tambourine Man play a song for me
In the jingle jangle morning I'll come following you
