Ok, I'll say hello!

If you see her say hello, she might be in North Saigon
She left here in a hurry; I don't know what she was on
You might say that I'm in disarray and for me time's standing still 
Oh I've never gotten over her, I don't think I ever will

A bright light from me I saw, a shattering of souls
Just one of them reckless situations, which nobody controls
Well, the menagerie of life rolls by, right before my eyes
And we all do the best we can, which should come as no surprise 

If you're making love to her, watch it from the rear
You'll never know when I'll be back, or liable to appear
For it's natural to dream of peace as it is for rules to break
And right now I've got not much to lose, so you'd better stay awake 

Sundown, silver moon, hitting on the days
My head can't understand no more, what my heart don't tolerate 
Well I know she'll be back someday, of that there is no doubt
And when that moment comes - Lord, give me the strength to keep her out 


I tend to like this version better. It's bitter and soft combined with pure sadness and a spoon of content. I haven't come across a feeling that Bob Dylan didn't express in his songs.
