Looking out at the snow, Remembering a long ago When my days were still young Full of hope, my life'd begun All the ways, all the things I was to do Reach the top and then begin anew All the lovers, all the girls I was to have Never came to pass. But don't you dare get me wrong I'm thankful for all that's done Peace & quiet ain't so bad Got no complaints, I ain't too sad But sometimes, my mind begins to wonder All the things I could've, should've done All the wrong things I should've dropped along the way Such has been my life. Forty eight years ain't so old Though some around me wouldn't know I may have a long time to go Although no one would ever know And what's before me ain't like the way behind me All the troubles I'm about to go through All the happy days that all lay before me Got to think them through.

Exile 04:56
Rain on down (x3) All around And it seems I'm lost at last With a no clear path Going home Sinking down (x3) Under ground And I feel Like a tumbling grass Thin as a glass Far away from home Tear it down (x3) Without a sound And it will Give out with no pain Like a shot in the vein Won't you take me home

Just got home about an hour ago Got a phone call from friend of old He was all so mesmerized At the same time petrified. (He asked:) Do you think it is impossible For a retched man to have love of his own? (4x) Do you think it is silly of me? Just a minute, I think I have something, some more to sing. Just got home about a 10 pass 4 Got an email from a girl I know She was all so petrified At the same time mesmerized (She asked:) Do you think it is improbable To love a woman whose heart is not yours? (4x) Can you answer this simple query? Just a minute, I think I have somewhere, some-place to be. Just got home got my foot through the door When I saw a letter under my door Was a note from the friend of old Written by that girl I know. No I think it aint impossible For people to have love of their own (4x) Do I make my case vigorously? Doesn't matter, this is just a story for me to sing.

Came down to see you Saw you walk on by Wanna say I miss you It'll do no good some how. I"ll do no good about it You wont hear my side I don't think you wanna believe it You'll let it all slide by. (3x) I want us be parts of two The chance is very slight I want us to begin a new You'd reject it out right. Wish I could lay with you now Kissing your soft thigh Even if I give in and bow You'll let it all slide by. (3x) Guess there's no use to think about it I can hear your sigh Guess there's no use to sing about it You wont hear my cry Wish I could let it go now I wouldn't be alright Lay down my life for you now You'll let it all slide by. (3x)

Dying of boredom Crying in my lonesome Shove this job where the sun won't be shining (2x) Oh I dream of flying Spread my wings, soaring But I'm stuck in this hole and I'm rotting Yes, I'm stuck in this hole and I'm dying Tired of procrastinating Always (a little bit) just slacking Shove this job where the sun won't be shining (2x)
