These Days Lyrics - Nico

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 to 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 these changes came about my ways 

And I wonder if I'd see another highway 

I had a lover 

I don't think I'd 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 cornerstones 

And count the time in quarter tones to 10 

Please don't confront me with my failures 

I had not forgotten them
