If you're walking If you feel your feet moving If you're standing And you've decided to go If there's nothing Left for you to hold onto If your paint peels and your shadows all grow Don't let it in your mind much, Sell it while you can The first time is forgotten when you land The tops are so much better When you hold them in your hands Don't let it in your mind much, Get out while you can If you're walking So if you see it
The yellow eye in the distance Or you read it In letters on the telephone poles If the lapping That whispers down by the water Starts to call you To come and fill in the holes Don't let it in your mind much, Sell it while you can The first time is forgotten when you land The tops are so much better When you hold them in your hands Don't let it in your mind much, Get out while you can If you're walking
