Artist: Nico Album: Individual Songs

Now that it's time
Now that the hour hand has landed at the end
Now that it's real
Now that the dreams have given all they had to lend
I want to know
Do I stay or do I go
And maybe try another time
And do I really have a hand in my forgetting

Now that I've tried
Now that I've finally found that this is not the way
Now that I turn
Now that I feel it's time to spend the night away
I want to know
Do I stay or do I go
And maybe finally split the rind
And do I really understand the undernetting

Yes, and the morning has me looking in your eyes and seeing mine
Warning me to read the signs carefully

Now that it's love
Now that the candle's falling smaller in my mind
Now that it's here
Now that I'm almost not so very far behind
I want to know
Do I stay or do I go
And maybe fall another side
And do I really have a sound that I can ride on

Now that I can
Now that it's easy, ever easy all around
Now that I'm near
Now that I'm falling to the sunlights and to song
I want to know
Do I stay or do I go
And do I have to do just one
And can I choose again if I should lose the reason

Yes, and the morning has me looking in your eyes and seeing mine
Warning me to read the signs, oh, carefully

Now that I smile
Now that I'm laughing even deeper in the side
Now that I see
Now that I finally found the one thing I denied
It's now I know
That do I stay or do I go
And it is finally I decide
That I'll be leaving in the fairest of the seasons

I've been out walking
I don't do too much talking these days, these days
These days I seem to think a lot
About the things that I forgot to do
And all the times I had the chance to

I've stopped my rambling
I don't do too much gambling these days, these days
These days I seem to think about
How all the changes came about my ways
And I wonder if I'd see another highway

I had a lover
I don't think I'll risk another these days, these days
And if I seem to be afraid
To live the life that I have made in song
It's just that I've been losing so long
La, la, la, la, la, la, la

I've stopped my dreaming
I won't do too much scheming these days, these days
These days I sit on corner stones
And count the time in quarter tones to ten
Please don't confront me with my failures
I had not forgotten them
