    Sitting (Live ’74)

    Oh I’m on my way, I know I am,
    Somewhere not so far from here
    All I know is all I feel right now,
    I feel the power growing in my hair
    Sitting on my own not by myself,
    Everybody’s here with me
    I don’t need to touch your face to know,
    And I don’t need to use my eyes to see
    I keep on wondering if I sleep too long,
    Will I always wake up the same (or so)?
    And keep on wondering if I sleep too long,
    Will I even wake up again – or something?

    Oh I’m on my way I know I am,
    But times there were when I thought not
    Bleeding half my soul in bad company,
    I thank the moon I had the strength to stop
    Now I’m not making love to anyone’s wishes,
    Only for that light I see
    ‘Cause when I’m dead and lowered low in my grave,
    That’s gonna be the only thing that’s left of me
    And if I make it to the waterside,
    Will I even find me a boat (or so)?
    And if I make it to the waterside,
    I’ll be sure to write you a note – or something
    Oh I’m on my way I know I am,
    somewhere not so far from here
    All I know is all I feel right now,
    I feel the power growing in my hair
