Fleeting Mind

Brilliance of my fleeting mind

Chimes like voices in foreign caves

Chimes in time

Takes me where I'm goin'

Alone, my fleeting mind is knowin'

Believe it when I pin it down

That's not hard to forget

With my hands upon my knees

You will steal from my fleeting mind

Remember all our words

They are just smoke rings in the rain

That's just a poem in brilliant places

But poets

They are too grim

They steal like party thieves from crowded rooms

To rhyme their homes with better places

The brilliance of their minds

Will seek with never knowin'

Alone, my fleeting mind is knowin'

Believe it when I pin it down

That's not hard to forget

With my thoughts, like sifting leaves

I believe in my fleeting mind

The brilliance of the mind

Seeks with never knowin'

Alone, my fleeting mind is showin'

Believe it when I pin it down

That's not hard to forget

And that's not hard to forget

That's not hard to forget

That's not hard to forget

Oh, my fleeting mind
