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

And all the times I had the chance to



I 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'd 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

So long



La la la la la

La la



I've stopped my dreaming

I won't do too much scheming these days

These days

These days I sit on cornerstones and count the time in quarter tones to ten

Please don't confront me with my failures

I had not forgotten them
