Restless Farewell

Bob Dylan
11/19/95
Frank Sinatra 80th Birthday Tribute

a false clock tries to tick out my time
to disgrace distract and bother me
and the dirt of gossip blows into my face
and the dust of rumors covers me
but if the arrow is straight
and the point is slick
it can pierce through dust
no matter how thick
so i'll make my stand
and remain as i am
and bid farewell
and not give a damn
--bob dylan (from "restless farewell ")
