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