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've 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
 I've stopped my dreaming
 I won't do too much scheming these days
 These days
 These days I sit on corner stones
 And count the time in quarter tones to ten
 Please, don't confront me with my failures
 I had not forgotten them
