Ricky Nelson - Love Minus Zero/No Limit lyrics

rate me

(Bob Dylan)

My love she speaks like silence

Without ideals or violence

She doesn't have to say she's faithful

Yet she's true, like ice, like fire

People carry roses, make promises by the hours

My love she laughs like the flowers

Valentines can't buy her.

In the dime stores and bus stations

People talk of situations

Read books, repeat quotations

Draw conclusions on the wall

Some speak of the future

My love, she speaks softly

She knows there's no success like failure

And the failure's no success at all.

The bridge at midnight trembles

The country doctor rambles

Bankers, nieces, seek perfection

Expecting all the gifts that wise men bring

The wind blows like a hammer

The night blows cold and rainy

My love, she's like some raven

At my window with a broken wing...
