Second Childhood

Forgive me for my gypsy soul
And all my wandering ways
Don't scold when I neglect the chores
There will be other days.

I must explore the mystery
Of every pot of gold
Hitch a ride on every rainbow
Over every winding road.

And follow every falling star
When the moon is bright
Meander through the daylight
'Till it turns into night.

Ride the crest of every wave
Dancing in the sea
Like a child escapes in play
Biding time, until eternity.
