These Days

Well, I've been out walking

And 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

And all the times I had the chance to

Well, I stopped my rambling

And I don't do too much gambling these days, these days

These days I sit on cornerstones

And count the time in quarter tones to ten

Oh, when I see that highway again

Well, I had a lover

And I don't think I'll risk another these days, these days

And if I seem to be afraid

To live the life that I have made in song

Well, it's just 'cause I've been losing too long

Well, I stopped my dreaming

And I don't do too much scheming these days, these days

These days I sit on cornerstones

And count the time in quarter tones to ten

My friend, don't confront me with my failures

I have not forgotten them, forgotten them
