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.

All the times I had, a chance to.

I've stopped my rambling,

I don't do too much gambling these days,

These days,

These days I seem to think about,

How all the changes came about my ways.

And I wonder if I'll see another, highway.

I had a lover,

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.

It's just that I've been losing, for so long.

I've stopped my dreaming,

I won't do too much skiing these days.

These days,

These days I sit on cornerstones,

And count the time in quarter tones to ten.

Stone confront me with my failure,

I had not for lot again.
