3
Won't say I love you babe
4
Won't say I need you babe
5
But I'm going to get you babe
6
and I will not do you wrong
7
Living's mostly wasting time
8
and I waste my share of mine
9
but it never feels too good
10
so let's not take too long
11
You're as soft as glass and I'm a gentle man
12
we got the sky to talk about
13
and the world to lie upon
14
Days up and down they come
15
like rain on a conga drum
16
forget most, remember some
17
but don't turn none away
18
Everything is not enough
19
nothing is too much to bear
20
where you been is good and gone
21
all you keep's the getting there
22
To live is to fly low and high
23
so shake the dust off of your wings
24
and the sleep out of your eyes
25
It's goodbye to all my friends
26
It's time to go again
27
Think of all the poetry
28
and the pickin' down the line
29
I'll miss the system here
30
the bottom's low and the treble's clear
31
but it don't pay to think too much
32
on the things you leave behind
33
I may be gone but I won't be long
34
I'll be bringing back the melody
35
and the rhythm that I find
36
We all got holes to fill
37
and them holes are all that's real
38
some fall on you like a storm
39
sometimes you dig your own
40
But choice is yours to make
41
time is yours to take
42
some dive into the sea
43
some toil upon the stone
44
To live is to fly low and high
45
so shake the dust off of your wings
46
the sleep out of your eyes
