prontas, incluindo Lay lady lay. Então ele precisava de mais músicas
e então compôs Tonight I'll be staying here with you enquanto
estava hospedado no hotel Ramada Inn.
A
letra marca uma mudança nas letras anteriores de Dylan sobre amor.
Aqui ele fala de uma mensagem positiva, que ele vai ficar ali com sua
amada, naquele noite e pra sempre.
Foi
regravada por Jeff Beck, Johnny Cash, Cher, Ben E King, Albert Lee,
Ricky Nelson, The Black Crowes, entre outros.
A
letra:
Throw
my ticket out the window
Throw my suitcase out there, too
Throw my troubles out the door
I don’t need them anymore
’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you
I should have left this town this morning
But it was more than I could do
Oh, your love comes on so strong
And I’ve waited all day long
For tonight when I’ll be staying here with you
Is it really any wonder
The love that a stranger might receive
You cast your spell and I went under
I find it so difficult to leave
I can hear that whistle blowin’
I see that stationmaster, too
If there’s a poor boy on the street
Then let him have my seat
’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you
Throw my ticket out the window
Throw my suitcase out there, too
Throw my troubles out the door
I don’t need them anymore
’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you
Throw my suitcase out there, too
Throw my troubles out the door
I don’t need them anymore
’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you
I should have left this town this morning
But it was more than I could do
Oh, your love comes on so strong
And I’ve waited all day long
For tonight when I’ll be staying here with you
Is it really any wonder
The love that a stranger might receive
You cast your spell and I went under
I find it so difficult to leave
I can hear that whistle blowin’
I see that stationmaster, too
If there’s a poor boy on the street
Then let him have my seat
’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you
Throw my ticket out the window
Throw my suitcase out there, too
Throw my troubles out the door
I don’t need them anymore
’Cause tonight I’ll be staying here with you
