Terry Reid - Marking Time Lyrics
Sand in my hair
And sand in almost everything I own
Birds wheeling high in the sky
but don't knowWhich way to flyWhich way to goWell I'm standing here
Just looking at the sea
Trying to wonder whether it sits for me
Or not at all
No one wants to change itSo many people so many people
May sit around and moan
But you're not, you're not, you're not
Going to find it very far away from homeI've been looking here
Trying to realize
Whether it's something that I could compromise
Or not at all
But nobody really wants to change itCall me anything
Call me a fool
Call me what you want
But just stay cool, stay cool, stay cool, stay coolI'm standing here
Trying to mesmerize
Wondering, wondering if the people realize
Or not at all
But nobody really wants to ever change itSo many people
sit and ask me why
But I'm just keeping hold of the seeds
Until the day I dieSitting here
I'm trying to realize
If it's really worth it
Or whether I should make out to disguise about it
If there's no way at all
