430 - Old sonnet blues

I'm leaving one week from now, or sooner
Said, leaving one week from now, or sooner
I've had a good time, gotta move on now

Time takes its toll, gotta roll, can't stay here
Time takes its toll, gotta roll, can't stay here
This place ain't so cool, time to disappear

You try for love, you get shoved out the way
You try for love, you get shoved out the way
The dove has flown, the wind's blown love away

(Break)

You pay your dues, you lose, sometimes you gain
You pay your dues, you lose, sometimes you gain
But staying in one place just brings you pain

Got a bad case of the old sonnet blues
Just gotta face these goddam sonnet blues
