1978/01/30, Rundown Studios, Santa Monica, California Tomorrow Is A Long Time 代码：491if 这是 1978 年 "Big Band" tour 的 rehearsal tape，就在前往日本的 前几天。 Tomorrow Is A Long Time 是很早期的作品，虽然着作权登记在 1963 年， 不过我能查到最早的表演日期，是在 1962 年 12 月纽约的 Witmark Studio ，代表这首歌严格说起，算是 Freewheelin' 的 outtake。 据一堆大头们的考证，这首歌跟 Ballad in Plain D、Boots of Spanish Leather一样， 写作的对象都是 1964 以後远赴义大利的 Susan "Suze" Rotolo （Freewheelin'封面那个女生），我对这还有一点存疑，毕竟离分手的时间 不对啊。 Anyway，这个 Rundown Studios 的版本，跟 1962 年的 Witmark demo、 或 Greatest Hits Vol.2 的感觉完全不一样，非常的...1978 XD 很烂的形容词啦，但我一听到这次的 arrangement，很直觉就会想到是 1978~79 年的东西。 然後还有我最喜欢的 quote 之一:) I can't see my reflection in the waters, I can't speak the sounds that show no pain, I can't hear the echo of my footsteps, Or can't remember the sound of my own name.... -- Tomorrow Is A Long Time / Bob Dylan If today was not an endless highway, If tonight was not a crooked trail, If tomorrow wasn't such a long time, Then lonesome would mean nothing to you at all. Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin', Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', Only if she was lyin' by me, Then I'd lie in my bed once again. I can't see my reflection in the waters, I can't speak the sounds that show no pain, I can't hear the echo of my footsteps, Or can't remember the sound of my own name. Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin', Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', Only if she was lyin' by me, Then I'd lie in my bed once again. There's beauty in the silver, singin' river, There's beauty in the sunrise in the sky, But none of these and nothing else can touch the beauty That I remember in my true love's eyes. Yes, and only if my own true love was waitin', Yes, and if I could hear her heart a-softly poundin', Only if she was lyin' by me, Then I'd lie in my bed once again. --
