These Days Lyrics - Mates Of State

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've had the chance to 

I 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 way 

And I wonder if I'll see another hide-a-way 

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 

Then I'd stop my dreaming 

I don'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 

'Cos I have not forgotten them
