There are faces I have known, places I have gone Loves & little books I've thrown away There are times that I remember, times that I forget Faces, places, people passing by There are names that run together, games go on forever Games, is someone really keepin' score? There are times that I remember, times that I forget Names & games & scorecards passing by There are rules that seem so ancient, schools of mindless patience Teachers only looking for their pay There are times that I remember, times that I forget Rules & schools & rulers passing by (instrumental) (repeat verse 3) (instrumental, fading out)
