Sometimes I laugh
Sometimes I dance.
Sometimes I pray and eat and prance.
Jovial now
Where sorrow once lay
I know that I am that I am,
Just for today.
Adieu I wish my past goodbye
I love that girl,
We know she tried.
Away I say to Brutishness and Drink!
Hello, I send my love
To those who love to think.
Caress my dear
My love divine
Another day another time.
For now, I wander
In a studious glade
Hoping to God I make the grade.
Alas! I roam
In artistic reverie.
Creating that
Which pleases me.
So goodbye again to memory!
No longer are you haunting me.
