Don't sit around and say leave me be
For the day is a-wasting you'll see
It's already time to fly up above that great big blue sky
And look down, oh can't you tell me what you see
Don't wait around and watch the leaves all fall
One by one you'll never count them all
So show me, my friend, how the days ahead will change me
And where you'll be when you can't stay
So take off your shoes
The places that you've been stick to their soles
And carry with you
All the prizes that modern men can't hold
When their souls are starving for something new
Oh, the wind at our backs blows so fast
Can't turn your head to recall any past
So show me, my friend, where life begins and daydreams end
And where you've always been if not here today
