A slow, smoky blues near the middle of Time Out of Mind, the album's fourth track.
The words
A man feels endlessly far from the woman he loves, even as he tries to get closer.
A man speaks to a woman who seems impossibly distant from him, though he keeps telling himself he is getting nearer. The song drifts through scraps of thought, regret and wry asides, its refrain measuring the gap between them. The band plays a low, loping groove with organ and guitar, and Dylan's voice sounds tired and sly at once.
