You know a dream is like a river
Ever changin' as it flows
And a dreamer's just a vessel
That must follow where it goes

And never knowing what's in store
Makes each day a constant battle
Just to stay between the shores;

As the storm blows on

Deep in her heart
The thunder rolls.

Are those we love the best.

We please the fleeting guest,
And deal full many a thoughtless blow
To those who love us best.
