Dying Now

Sail on, gypsy of my heart

You've been hanging around

Been with me from the start

Sail on, sail on silver girl

You've been spinning me fast

Like a tilt-a-whirl

I've done a lot of living

In this town

I've done a lot of flying

My feet on the ground

You can't build your bridges

After you've burned them down

I've done a lot of living

But I'm dying now

How long, how long should it take

For you to learn your lessons from all your mistakes?

How long until the well runs dry

Your bucket's coming up empty

You're wondering why

You've done a lot of living

In this town

You've done a lot of flying

Your feet on the ground

You can't build your bridges

After you burn them down

You've done a lot of living

But you're dying now

Dying now

So long

Everything must go

I can't leave it behind

If I've never really known

So long to "nothing matters now,"

Who knows if I stand a chance?

But I'm trying anyhow

Cause I've done a lot of living

In this town

I've done a lot of flying

My feet on the ground

You can't build your bridges

After you burn them down

I've done a lot of living

But I'm dying now
