Well I've been out walking

I don't do that much talking these days

These days

These days I seem to think a lot

About the things that I forgot to do

Nd all the times I had the chance to

And I had a lover

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

These days

Now 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 so long

I quit my scheming

I don't do all that dreaming these days

These days

These days I sit on corner stones

And count the time in quarter tones to ten

Don't confront me with my failures

I have not forgotten them
