These Days

Well I've been out walkin'
I don't do that much talkin'
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've had the chance to

And I've stopped my ramblin'
Now I don't do that much gamblin'
These days, these days
These days I seem to think about
How all these changes came about my way
And I wonder if I'll see another highway

And I had a lover
But it's so hard to 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 that I've been losin' for so long

So I'll stop my dreamin'
And I don't do that much schemin'
These days, these days
These days I sit on cornerstones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Please don't comfront me with my failures
For I have not forgotten them
