Lyrics

Won't say I love you, babe Won't say I need you, babe I'm gonna get you babe And I will not do you wrong Living's mostly wasting time And I'll waste my share of mine But it never feels too good So let's don't take too long Well you're soft as glass And I'm a gentle man And we got the sky to talk about And the world to lie upon Days, up and down they come Like rain on a conga drum Forget most, remember some But don't turn none away Everything is not enough And nothin' is too much to bear Where you been is good and gone All you keep's the getting there Well, to live is to fly All low and high So shake the dust off of your wings And the sleep out of your eyes It's goodbye to all my friends It's time to go again Think of all the poetry And the pickin' down the line Well I'll miss the system here The bottom's low and the treble's clear But it don't pay to think too much On things you leave behind Well I may be gone But it won't be long I'll be a-bringin' back the melody And rhythm that I find We all got holes to fill And them holes are all that's real Some fall on you like a storm Sometimes you dig your own The choice is yours to make And time is yours to take Some dive into the sea Some toil upon the stone Well, to live's to fly All low and high So shake the dust off of your wings And sleep out of your eyes Oh shake the dust off of your wings And tears out of your eyes
