i've been out walking

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 ramblin'

i don't do too much gamblin' these days

these days

these days i seem to think about

how all the changes came about my way

and i wonder if i'll see another highway

and 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

well it's just 'cause i've been losing so long

well i'll stop my dreamin'

i don't do too much schemin' these days

these days

these days i'll sit on cornerstones

and count the time in quartertones to ten

please don't confront me with my failures

i had not forgotten them
