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