If I had the time to find a place
And sit me down full face to face
With my better self, that stands no
Show
In my daily life that rushes so,
It might be then I would see my soul
Was stumbling still toward the shining
Goal-
I might be nervrd by the thought
Sublime,
If I had the time!
If I had the time to learn from you
How much for comfort my world would
Do;
And I told you then of my sudden
Will
To kiss your feet when I did you ill-
If the tears aback the bravado
Could force their way and let you
know-
The souls of all of us would
chime,
If we had the time!
