Brilliance of my fleeting mind   Chimes like voices in foreign caves   Chimes in time   Takes me where I'm going   Alone my fleeting mind is knowing   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 knowing   Alone my fleeting mind is knowing   Believe it when I pin it down      That's not hard to forget   (Hard)   With my thought like sifting leaves   I believe in my fleeting mind      The brilliance of their mind   Seeks with never knowing   Alone my fleeting mind is showing   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   Alone my fleeting mind
