In the coming days I may take to flight Circling the trees like a bird bound south But I always float back down on my lazy wings To the frozen ground, to my apathy
And just as sure as the days grow short Somehow we're always waiting
In the coming days don't you be surprised If I hibernate, if I hide my eyes So if you found me down some dark hideaway We could wait around, could watch the shadows change
And just as sure as the days grow short Somehow we're always waiting
So I may call you up and I may be inclined To get drunk on words, to be short on time
And just as sure as the days grow short Somehow we're always waiting
