Bob Dylan's 3rd verse:
Go melt back into the night, babe, everything inside is made of stone.
There's nothing in here moving an' anyway I'm not alone.
You say you're looking for someone who'll pick you up each time you fall,
To gather flowers constantly an' to come each time you call,
A lover for your life an' nothing more, but it ain't me, babe,
No, no, no, it ain't me, babe, it ain't me you're lookin' for, babe.
