I'd been out walking
I don't do too much talking these days
These days i seem to think a lot about the things i forgot to do
And all the times i had the chance too

I quit my rambling
I don't do too much gambling these days
These days i seem to think a lot about the many changes that came my way
And i wonder if i'd ever see another highway

I had a lover
I don't think i'd risk another these days
These days and if i seem to be afraid to live the life i have made in song
It's just that i've been losing so long

I've quit my dreaming
I won't do too much scheming 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 have not forgotten them
