[00:07.560]Won't say I love you, babe
[00:10.760]Won't say I need you, babe
[00:14.200]I'm gonna get you babe
[00:16.460]And I will not do you wrong
[00:20.430]Living's mostly wasting time
[00:23.790]And I'll waste my share of mine
[00:26.940]But it never feels too good
[00:29.740]So let's don't take too long
[00:32.660]Well you're soft as glass
[00:35.880]And I'm a gentle man
[00:39.490]And we got the sky to talk about
[00:42.710]And the world to lie upon
[00:51.600]Days, up and down they come
[00:54.740]Like rain on a conga drum
[00:57.740]Forget most, remember some
[01:00.600]But don't turn none away
[01:04.400]Everything is not enough
[01:07.420]And nothin' is too much to bear
[01:11.020]Where you been is good and gone
[01:13.680]All you keep's the getting there
[01:16.750]Well, to live is to fly
[01:20.180]All low and high
[01:23.440]So shake the dust off of your wings
[01:26.670]And the sleep out of your eyes
[01:35.170]It's goodbye to all my friends
[01:38.700]It's time to go again
[01:41.890]Think of all the poetry
[01:44.580]And the pickin' down the line
[01:48.290]Well I'll miss the system here
[01:51.180]The bottom's low and the treble's clear
[01:54.440]But it don't pay to think too much
[01:57.330]On things you leave behind
[02:00.470]Well I may be gone
[02:03.660]But it won't be long
[02:06.900]I'll be a-bringin' back the melody
[02:10.570]And rhythm that I find
[02:19.510]We all got holes to fill
[02:22.340]And them holes are all that's real
[02:25.310]Some fall on you like a storm
[02:28.150]Sometimes you dig your own
[02:32.300]The choice is yours to make
[02:35.370]And time is yours to take
[02:38.750]Some dive into the sea
[02:40.990]Some toil upon the stone
[02:44.290]Well, to live's to fly
[02:47.870]All low and high
[02:50.980]So shake the dust off of your wings
[02:54.480]And sleep out of your eyes
[02:57.470]Oh shake the dust off of your wings
[03:00.780]And tears out of your eyes

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