Shadows are falling and I’ve been here all day

They say ev’rything can be replaced
Yet ev’ry distance is not near
So I remember ev’ry face

So just because you’re out there in the desert, facing an endless sky and an unknown nothingness, doesn’t necessarily mean you’re free. You’re trapped in the desert. Only knowledge of either yourself or the ultimate power can get you out of it. I don’t know that much.
– Bob Dylan to Philip Fleishman (Feb. 1978)
First live performance: War Memorial Auditorium, Plymouth, Massachusetts – 30 October 1975.
Last live performance: Stodoła, Warsaw, Poland – 7 June 2008
