Paroles
There was a moon out in space
But a cloud drifted over it's face
You kissed me and went on your way
The night we called it a day
I heard the song of the spheres
Like a minor lament in my ears
I hadn't the heart left to pray
The night we called it a day
Soft through the dark
The hoot of an owl in the sky
Sad though his song
No bluer was he than I
The moon went down stars were gone
But the sun didn't rise with the dawn
There wasn't a thing left to say
The night we called it a day
There wasn't a thing left to say
The night we called it a day
Interprétation
Ballade de la nuit finie, chantée d'une voix basse. Le standard de 1941 évoque la fin d'une histoire, au terme d'une nuit.
Cette reprise, d'une retenue exemplaire, montre Dylan retrouvant la veine des crooners. Il y chante la fin des choses avec une douceur qui contraste avec son image.
