Jackson Browne - These Days

He wrote this when he was sixteen....Talk about poetry....


Well I've been out walking

I don't do that 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

And I had a lover

It's so hard to risk another these days

These days--

Now if I seem to be afraid

To live the life that I have made in song

Well it's just that I've been losing for so long

I'll keep on moving...moving on

Things are bound to be improving these days

These days--These days I sit on corner stones

And count the time in quarter tones to ten, my friend

Don't confront me with my failures

I had not forgotten them

How can you argue with this? Jackson, Jackson, Jackson! YAY!
