As was said about Curly Putnam, "If you ain't crying, you ain't listening!" The same is true of this classic by Bob Dylan from his 1997 Grammy-winning album, "Time out of mind."

This is another in my continuing series "Deciphering Dylan," but this song needs little deciphering. It is a simple song about the loss of love and how it can make a person feel like their life is over and the only thing left to do is "get to Heaven before they close the door." Have you been there? I have!

This song also goes into my playlist for "Music of My Life." Those are songs that I have become addicted to over the years, and can listen to over and over again without ever get tired of them!

Here is a link to the original audio that I used in this video:
