Dylan, Jakob - Gonna Be A Darkness Lyrics
There's gonna be roses
And your picture in a frame
The women will be cryin' and the men they will whisper your name
Umbrellas will be open
On a hillside of graves
And there's gonna be a darkness
It may be colder than you'd guess
There may not be music
There may not be stairs
There may not be angels filling the air
Your mother may be there
Your father may be there
There may not be voices sent from a throne to carry you home
The Devil may see you first
He's hitting himself in both the beast and the birth
A stranger may have found you
Where the angels have lulled you to sleep
To swallow you whole like a whale from your head to your feet
And there's gonna be a darkness
It may be colder than you'd guessed
There may not be music
There may not be stairs
There may not be angels filling the air
Your mother may be there
Your father may be there
There may not be voices sent from a throne to carry you home
Where you think there's a place
Wide open and white
Where you think you'll be safe
Where you think there's a light
There's gonna be a darkness
May be colder than you'd guessed
There may not be music
There may not be stairs
There may not be angels filling the air
Your mother may not be there
Your father may not be there
There may not be voices sent from a throne to carry you home
There may not be music
There may not be stairs
There may not be angels filling the air
Your mother may not be there
Your father may not be there
There may not be voices sent from a throne to carry you home

Dylan, Jakob Gonna Be A Darkness Comments
I often ask myself "Tim, what makes a good song a good song?" And usually I answer this way: "Tim, I don't know. But I sure know it when I hear one."
wow... Heard this for the first time.. Thank you youtube... Thank you Mr. Dylan.. So much to grasp and sink in... Life....
I would implore people to check out the Jayhawks version, it's better, really it is, no disrespect to Jakob
how can only 451 people like this song from 62000 views........ ? great song.
God, to think of death. This is chilling and wonderful. What a writer!
https://youtu.be/FiolKobg5lM
The Jayhawks recorded this on their new album. Both versions are terrific.
Thomas Senor good call
Who's playing slide on this? Beautiful performance, beautiful song.
That's Gary Louris (from the Jayhawks) on guitar, and also harmonies/vocals. He's incredible. My favorite guitarist.
This is real a great song.Very rare this is special.
If we ignore Him, He will forsake us and there will not be music
If my mother and my father may be there .... I am gona need some VODKA... and your welcome.
I repeat V O D K A ... preferably Stolichnaya, Amsterdam, or Seagrams (they have the best bottle design).
This hit me like a ton of bricks. Haunting but beautiful at the same time. It's on it's way to being an all time favorite of mine. Wow.
Wow. What two voices are more lovely than Bob Dylans amazing son and Gary Louris sweet voice. This is wonderful.
Top ten for me!
Hermosisima, de tal palo .......
Check out Jayhawks as well, Gary Louris is a fab songwriter too, what an amazing song hey!
