the most of what is least-Marianne Faithfull Şarkı Sözleri

i'm staring at the setting of the sun
for i know my time with you is nearly gone
and my minutes, they're so precious, yes, each and every one
as i try to make the most of what is least.

i've a weary kind of feeling in my mind,
i'll try to look ahead and not behind.
and i know that you don't mean to be unkind
as i try to make the most of what is least.

the rain is dripping down my window pane
and if you came back to me, it wouldn't be the same.
i know the end is near and i'll try to battle on
as i try to make the most of what is least.

i'm staring at the setting of the sun
for i know my time with you is nearly gone
and my minutes, they're so precious, yes, each and every one
as i try to make the most of what is least.

lonely nights down by the railroad track,
i see you going and never coming back.
i'll try, i'll try, i'll try to battle on
as i try to make the most of what is least.
