Exploring Bob Dylan’s "Tomorrow Is A Long Time"--A Love Song
from Heart Banter by David Gittlin · host David Gittlin/Music Covers Specialist
Bob Dylan recorded the first version of “Tomorrow Is A Long Time” in 1962. He didn’t release it until 1971 on his “Greatest Hits Album.” Oddly, Ian and Sylvia were the first recording artists to release the song in 1963 on their album “Four Strong Winds.” The song is about longing for a loved one, specifically Suze Rotolo, who Dylan dated from 1961 to 1964. It is widely believed that another Dylan song, “Girl From The North Country,” is also about Rotolo. Here’s my cover.
