Katies Been Gone — текст песни (Bob Dylan)

(by j. r. robertson and r. manuel)



Katies been gone since the spring time;

She wrote one timen sent her love.

Katies been gone for such a long time now.

I wonder what kind of love shes thinkin of.



Dear katie,

If you can hear me,

I cant wait to have ya near me.



Oh, katie, since ya caught that bus,

Well, I just dont know how things are with us.

Im still here and youre out there.



Katie laughed when I said I was lonely.

She said, theres no need tfeel that way.

Katie said that I was her only one,

But then I wonder why she didnt wanna stay.



Dear katie, if Im the only one,

How much longer will you be gone?

Oh, katie, wont ya tell me straight:

How much longer do I have to wait?



Ill believe you,

But please come through.

I know its wrong to be apart this long;

You should be here, near me.



Katies been gone and now her face is slowly fading from my mind.

Shes gone to find some newer places,

Left the old life far behind.

Dear katie, dont ya miss your home?

I dont see why you had to roam.



Dear katie, since youve been away

I lose a little something every day

I need you here, but youre still out there.

Dear katie, please drop me a line,

Just write, love, to tell me youre fine.



Oh, katie, if you can hear me,

I just cant wait to have you near me.

I can only think

Where are you,

What ya do, may be theres someone new.
