A love song from Planet Waves, recorded with The Band, in which Dylan refers to his boyhood in Duluth, Minnesota.
The words
A woman stirs up memories of his youth and a feeling he cannot name, and he pledges himself to her.
The singer tries to explain what it is about a particular woman that moves him so deeply. She seems to awaken his earliest memories, taking him back to his childhood in the north, and he concludes that he is devoted to her. The song mixes nostalgia and romance in a mood that is both tender and restless. Musically it rolls along at a steady mid-tempo, with The Band's organ and guitar weaving around the vocal.
