Bob Dylan: Love Minus Zero/No Limit, Newcastle, England 20 June 1998 (video)
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
