These Days

These Days
Well I've been out walking
I don't do that much talking these days
These days,
These days I seem to think a lot

These days,
Now if I seem to be afraid
To live the life I have made in song
Well it's just that I've been losing so long
I'll keep on moving
Things are bound to be improving these days
These days,
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend
Don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
