I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking these days
These days, these days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do for you
And all the times I had the chance to

I had a lover
Well, I don't think I'll risk another these days
These days if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
Well, it's just, just that Ive been losing so long, oh long

I'll stop my dreaming
I won't do too much scheming these days
These days, these days I sit on cornerstones
And count the time quarter to's 'til ten, my friend
Please don't confront me with my failures
I've not forgotten them
