These Days

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
