Marking Time Lyrics - Singles - Terry Reid

Sand in my hair 

And sand in almost everything I own 

Birds wheeling high in the sky 

But don't know which way to fly, which way to go 

Well I'm standing here 

Just looking at the sea 

Trying to wonder whether it sits for me 

Or not at all 

No one wants to change it 

So many people, so many people 

May sit around and moan 

But you're not, you're not, you're not 

Going to find it very far away from home 

I've been looking here 

Trying to realize 

Whether it's something that I could compromise 

Or not at all 

But nobody really wants to change it 

Call me anything 

Call me a fool 

Call me what you want 

But just stay cool, stay cool, stay cool, stay cool 

I'm standing here 

Trying to mesmerize 

wondering, wondering if the people realize 

Or not at all 

But nobody really wants to ever change it 

So many people 

Sit and ask me why 

But I'm just keeping hold of the seeds 

Until the day I die 

Sitting here 

I'm trying to realize 

If it's really worth it 

Or whether I should make out to disguise about it 

If there's no way at all
