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
