Subject: Re: REQ: Lyrics to D. Fogelberg's "These Days"
Per the 1975 FullMoon/Epic release "Captured Angel" album sleeve (remember
those)...the lyrics to "These Days" are as follows:
I used to think of myself as a soldier
Holding his own against impossible odds
Badly outnumbered and caught in a crossfire
Of devils and gods.
All I ever wanted to be was free
All I ever looked for was what was within my eyes to see
Oh, but, these days
Are just like you and me
Oh, but, these days
Are just like you and me.
You used to be something I could believe in
How could you let me foresake myself so.
You used to think of your life as a riddle
With no answer known.
All you ever wanted to be was free
All you ever looked for was what was within your sights to see
Oh, but these days
Are just like you and me
Oh, but, these days
Are just like you and me.
We used to live like there was no tomorrow
Tasting our trials a day at a time
Crying for justice and laughing at sorrow
Such innocent crimes.
All we ever wanted to be was free
All we ever looked for was what was within our sights to see
Oh, but these days
Are just like you and me
Oh, but, these days
Are just like you and me
Just like you and me.
You know they're just like you and me.
(This is one of my favorites. By the way, just saw Dan at the
Bloomsburg, PA fair Sept. 30, and he looked great and sounded
better than ever!)
