“Go ’way from my window
Leave at your own chosen speed
I’m not the one you want, babe
I’m not the one you need”

Another Side of Bob Dylan - It Ain't Me Babe
B. Dylan (www.bobdylan.com) I've definitely been on the other side of this song's speaker a few times in my life. I've been incredibly guilty of expecting too much from the people that I've cared about in life. I know I've pushed some people away because of it and it's something I regret. Unfortunately, I am one of those people that is governed by passion on all matters rather than reason and this is a difficult trait to turn around.

I included the rest of the lyrics on this one because it all rings so true:

“You say you’re lookin’ for someone
Never weak but always strong
To protect you an’ defend you
Whether you are right or wrong
Someone to open each and every door
But it ain’t me, babe
No, no, no, it ain’t me, babe
It ain’t me you’re lookin’ for, babe
Go lightly from the ledge, babe
Go lightly on the ground
I’m not the one you want, babe
I will only let you down
You say you’re lookin’ for someone
Who will promise never to part
Someone to close his eyes for you
Someone to close his heart
Someone who will die for you an’ more
But it ain’t me, babe
No, no, no, it ain’t me, babe
It ain’t me you’re lookin’ for, babe
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 lookin' 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”
