Stranger

THE NEW BASEMENT TAPES · Lost On The River: The New Basement Tapes 2014 · Track 12 of 20

Written by Bob Dylan, Marcus Mumford

Never fall in love with a stranger And that, son, they all said to me And never fall in love with a stranger But I can't help it if she falls in love with me

And never fall in love with a stranger Now, they've gone against my command And never fall in love with a stranger The pain is written in my hands

But if I can't resist Find my way outta this

She knows that our love more than any river flows And I'm done now, all of my intentions are exposed Not hidden in my clothes Or in between my toes

I wanna tombstone pearl handle revolver Don't wanna meet a pale man with a halo in his hair Never fall in love with a stranger But sometimes I simply do not care

And if I can't resist Get my way outta this

She knows that our love more than any river flows And I'm done now, all of my intentions are exposed Not hidden in my clothes Or in between my toes

I done things right, pretty much all of my life I'm not looking for any sympathy I can run all I like away from that stranger But somehow she'll always follow me
