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
