10000 Maniacs - These Days lyrics

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 for you

And all the times I had the chance to

I had a lover

Well, I don't think I'll risk another these days

These days if I seem to be afraid

To live the life that I have made in song

Well, it's just, just that Ive been losing so long, oh long

I'll stop my dreaming

I won't do too much scheming these days

These days, these days I sit on cornerstones

And count the time quarter to's 'til ten, my friend

Please don't confront me with my failures

I've not forgotten them
